Office space meme:

"If y'all could stop calling an LLM "open source" just because they published the weights... that would be great."

7-zip
VLC
OBS
Firefox did it only to mostly falter to Chrome but Chrome is largely Chromium which is open source.
Linux (superseded all the Unix, very severely curtailed Windows Server market)
Nearly all programming language tools (IDEs, Compilers, Interpreters)
Essentially all command line ecosystem (obviously on the *nix side, but MS was pretty much compelled to open source Powershell and their new Terminal to try to compete)

In some contexts you aren't going to have a lively enough community to drive a compelling product even as there's enough revenue to facilitate a company to make a go of it, but to say 'no open source software has acheived that' is a bit much.
