I paid and renewed for Wine relay too, mostly because Mazin seemed to be one of the earlier guys experimenting with different ways to run and setup relays etc.
Of course there are free alternatives, but someone's gotta pay the bills otherwise we'll be back at "if its free, you are the product" before you know it.
I feel sometimes there are wealthier people NOT paying to push things forward though, which is annoying to think about.
