Why do you want to switch?
- mherrmann 8y agoActually, I'm very happy with PyQt. It works great. But I'm afraid that its more restrictive licensing limits the global audience of "Qt & Python" users. My hope is that Qt for Python will make the combination even more popular.
- Longhanks 8y agoTL;DR you want avoid paying the PyQT developers for a commercial license.
- mherrmann 8y agoNo, that's not it. As I said, PyQt is excellent and I'm happy to be paying for such quality work.
- jdjb 8y agoThere's nothing wrong with hoping a freely licensed open source competitor will come along and lower the cost of developing in the space. PyQT are free to extract fees from the ecosystem as long as they can, just as some open source devs are free to try to eat their lunch money.
- ben509 8y ago> its more restrictive licensing limits the global audience That means not everyone has a business model that supports paying a license fee.
