In other words, tech savvy customers will not be paying for my product since they will just host locally and use community support forums. And if my product is marketed to tech savvy people, that's a huge hit to my market.

It's basically just encrypting files and sending it to S3, entirely open source, and he's still able to charge. I'm sure he's not living the high life off of it, but most people aren't off single products anyway.
