I stopped at the pricing model. The jump from $0 to $49 per developer precludes my typical "dip my toe in the water" approach with new platforms.
I'd ideally want to try it out in production with a real, small commercial job. But if I do and decide not to expand my use of the platform, then I'm committed to a $600/year hosting deal for a small client...
And I won't use it on a bigger client at first due to the risk of lock-in.
In fact - lock-in is the biggest problem with using this. It's a paradox. I'll only willingly get locked in to platforms that I'm 100% happy with and I am only 100% happy when I've been using a platform for a reasonable length of time.
Otherwise I risk having to rewrite a 5 year old website for a client out of my own pocket when you decide to pivot or you run out of cash/luck.
