Yeah, that really feels like the exact wrong attitude to have. If you don't want people to build money-making products on top of your OSS, either license it that way or make it closed source. Period. I don't see any reasonable grounds for complaint here.
- wilsonrocks 6y agoIsn't he just describing his emotional response though? I think it's valid to be annoyed about something you specifically allow in your license... So long as you don't try to stop it?
- adamwathan 6y agoThis isn’t really what I was saying when I made that comment (in a personal conversation among a small group of friends). I love that other people are building things on top of Tailwind and I think it’s great. I was only describing my own emotional state and how much pressure it makes me personally feel to finish our commercial projects, and how stressful it is to feel like there’s not enough time because my time has to be split instead of being able to just focus on the commercial tools. Purely just me commenting on my own stress and being vulnerable among friends, not any sort of commentary on the ethics of other people building things on my OSS.
