Those features cost money to develop, so charging a fee helps fund development. In theory if you are selling, you have revenue to pay for those subscription-based services. The best part about open source is that you can build it yourself if existing offerings are lacking.
- econcon 6y agoFor starting forums for example Discourse is great with plenty of free plugins. But nothing like that exists in E-commerce atleast I've not used anything which atleast solved some basic e-commerce problems with free plugins. Yet there are tons of e-commerce websites. It seems many of them are using plugins by some private agencies which sell maintenance service.
