This is an example of the entitled subset of people who come out of the woodwork whenever an open source project has any kind of monetization or even just a non-standard license prohibiting billion dollar companies from selling their project as a service.

I guarantee the fact that I referred to a project with an anti Amazon clause as open source will piss some of the off so much that they’ll comment here about it.



Same people who complain about GPL and other copy left licenses I imagine.


op: copies information from the website

you: "How dare you!!!!!"


There's a such thing as context and intent which are separate from content, and this is directed as much at the people who upvoted this particular content to the top comment as it is to the OP.

The conversation on this post is now centered around the fact that they have some premium features for sale.

Edit: Now there’s another post on the front page of HN accusing the datastar team of being greedy.

Oh the horror!!!!!!


The open core model is great and entitled buttholes, and open source warriors discouraging people from doing that is pretty horrible.

I mean it’s not war in Ukraine horrible but I think it’s awful that people expect you to work for them for free.


Posting documentation from the site != "people expect you to work for them for free."

Really an insane thing to see a comment that informs you of pricing for their pro package and have a horde of people jump in with "How dare you!!!?!?!"
