WordPress seems to have worked out well. If the company (wordpress.com) goes under, the platform (wordpress.org) will stay alive and well. The companies that relied on wordpress.com can just migrate to any other premium WP service, such as WP Engine.

For Gatsby.js users the alternatives in a Gatsby-the-company-goes-under scenario would be limited to just Netlify and DIY (and maybe Vercel?). If the demand for managed-Gatsby grows then so will the supply, thus giving people more options in a worst-case scenario.
