As much as I like Delaney, the discord server and Datastar I find this question baffling.

If the Postgres team released PGPro, swore it just contained anti patterns and you can just write the code yourself if you needed that feature, you’d roll your eyes, no?

It’s about the fact they went there, not about the intentions.

You are right! If this is enough to put you off the project then I hope you find one that aligns with your ideals.

Hey Delaney! Thanks for you and your teams work.

It doesn't put me off the project! I will happily pay for great software that enables me to make money just like I'd pay for good tools around the house (once I get started with D*).

I was just pointing out that in my mind the criticism is totally fair game because many OSS do not do this, that is all. By the looks of it you agree.

I think I want to just mention something here that is really important. The Datastar team have done more to push for performance, better UX and the ways of thinking around SPAs and MPAs than multi billion dollar companies have done in the last couple of years. Not forgetting HTMX, this cooperation has been incredibly fruitful and I am very excited about the future with you guys.

		Oh noes, we agree on stuff. I don't know what to do now... stare at feet.
