The difference between sourcehut and redis is in the governance structure and in my perceived predictability of their roadmaps.
The governing committee of sourcehut is a single person - ddevault. He clearly states his motivations and intentions regarding sourcehut in his regular updates. It is easy to predict the direction in which sourcehut will be developed over the next year.
The article we are commenting on states that the governing committee of Redis consists of representatives from Redis Labs, AWS, and Alibaba. Their agendas are not as transparent as ddevault's and mark a potentially significant departure from antirez's plans for redis.
Most importantly, as a member of a team that is just setting up a redis instance, I naturally wonder what the alternatives are so that we can properly evaluate them. Because we are a small team and strapped for cash, we would prefer to evaluate free (as in freedom) options. This is what led to my original question.
