this is not correct: most developers have been paid, at least partially,
from very early stages of the project, and still now most are also doing
volunteer work. So the two things have always been mixed, and each dev
found its personal balance.
The problem is that this does not apply much to documenters, because it
is very difficult to get paid to document a feature.

Cheers.
