This is what happen when you first open your app the public, you get feedback that may not line up with you primary vision. I found these primary feedbacks invaluable because it tells you that your product is not doing exactly what people want, you learn from it and shift direction. Your idea is very good and well executed, you should minimize the trust factor by making it less social based ; make it possible for someone to take his code away from your platform.

Thank you! In fact, moving code away from Akshell should be possible. All libraries and utilities are BSD-licensed, one only have to clone the core to run Akshell applications.

  Cloning the core doesn't sound simple (even if it is). Making it easy to move away lowers the potential cost of using Akshell - I really don't want to be locked in. How about open sourcing whatever is needed to run an app on your own server and then working on keeping customers through convenience and the interoperability between apps?

    May be I'll take this way. But now it's too early do decide. At least because currently Akshell doesn't have many users and applications; so if I opensource the core, anybody would be able to setup an absolutely equivalent server.

      Sure - you'll need to take a bit of a wait and see approach, but personally I'm hesitant to build anything at this point. If I wanted to build something serious on it I'd be relying on you to stay in business... And when I suggest open sourcing I am thinking in terms of the bare minimum to setup an app on another server - so your very cool editing system wouldn't need to be part of it, that would be what makes you different from anyone else who sets up their own server.

        Well, the edition system isn't mine; it's EditArea, a free client-side JS library by Christophe Dolivet. But opensourcing a part of Akshell may be a good idea. I should think about it. Thank you.
