I hope they open source it before someone else decompiles it and does it for them. Just charge for binaries that most will pay for anyway. Then things like Linux support could be handled by the community.

The core tool is CC BY-NC-SA 4.0

They’re charging for the bundled plugins for various editing suites

▲LeoWattenberg an hour ago | parent [-]

It is not, there's additional restrictions beyond the CC license.

What are they then? It literally says "CC BY-NC-SA 4.0".

None of the “decompiled” projects you’re alluding are legitimately open-source. Just because you turn the gaze of your plagiarism machine onto strictly licensed software doesn’t mean the result is a “clean room” implementation or even something that you yourself could copyright.

▲ShowalkKama an hour ago | parent | prev | next [-]

it's already open source, only the plugins are paid.

▲LeoWattenberg an hour ago | parent [-]

It is source-available, not open source.

Open source is not always sustainable.

The OSI was created by the hyperscalers to pilfer free work from the commons.

Redis and elastic got owned by GCP and AWS because they went for OSI purity. The OSI is the hyperscalers.

Good fair source is more like shareware. The community can do whatever they want. Companies trying to profit must give back or pay to play.

Developers need to be compensated. It shouldn't be a labor of love that gets commercialized by hyperscalers whose own products are not open source.

The Corridor Crew model here is fantastic. As are fair source licenses. That's the way we should have done things all along.
