Some of us use FOSS because of access to the source and the benefits of an all FOSS system. Not because it's zero cost. This list is just zero cost and some happen to be FOSS.
Gratis rather than libre.
Some of us like free stuff though and the post never said that it was supposed to be a list of FOSS projects.
I guess this is Technology not Linux or FOSS, but feels like the difference is often mixed up and it's not all about cost. Anyway, looks like there is now a added note they aren't all FOSS.

Well then I missed that the first time.
I'd have put in bracket with each list item if it was FOSS, shareware, free trial, free for non corp use, etc.
Yeah that would have been nice but it would be time consuming for the poster.
Yeh
They aren’t even free. CapCut, for instance, requires a subscription to access most of the features.
