We're going to make this free for personal uses but not sure at this time what licensing model we should adopt.
- ssatta 11y agoAs long as 'free for personal use' means 'closed source' then at least I would have a hard time trusting a tool backing up personal files into public cloud storage without transparency about how the crypto is implemented. I suspect that may also be the case for much of your 'personal use' target audience.
- acrosync 11y agoSince most HN commenters are concerned about the source code availability, we'll definitely reconsider the licensing model.
- lewisl9029 11y agoPlease do! The product & tech looks very promising. I'd hate to have to cross it off my shortlist due to trust issues.
- ssatta 11y agoIndeed please do! You're definitely scratching a very real itch here.
- gaboose 10y agoA thought: Do you think people would pay collectively (given the chance) like a fundraiser to publish the source, when a certain limit is reached? Maybe even pay the developer's bills that way? I wonder..
