Can you clarify in concrete terms what the closed source development and 0.19 thing had cost you?
- napsterbr 8y agoI guess I've replied on the sister thread. 0.19 was just the final push. Closed development plus complete blocking of contrary feedback just does not feel like open source. The lack of transparency removed all the trust we had in the project, and although our app is relatively big, it is still viable to change to something else - that we trust.
- sixstringbudha 8y agoSo it seems that it was just a matter of trust (but it is not clear what trust you were looking for) and frustration with your feedback not getting heard?
