Do you have any plans to monetize users like me? Eg, i want to run it at home behind a firewall. I'd love to purchase something, but not at the cost of privacy/etc.
How do i fit in your long term goals?
- kentonv 10y agoWell, we had a product called "Sandstorm for Work" which was self-hosted and which people could pay for, and a lot of people said they'd love to pay for it, but very few people ever did. :/ So now we've removed the paywall and the Sandstorm for Work premium features are available in all self-hosted Sandstorm servers for free. If you'd like to help the project monetarily, you can sign up for an Oasis account, even if you intend to primarily use Sandstorm self-hosted. That said, at present, we've stopped worrying about monetization and are only worried about making the platform better and getting more users. Simply installing a server and using it helps us! The more users we have, the more interest there will be from developers, and vice-versa.
