This is a bit disingenuous. They now market themselves as the creators of Reddit, or its owners, which is not true. They employed its creator for a while, but that's all.
It would've been much better for Redis's long term health to have the logo and name trademarks transferred to a non-profit steering organisation managed by the steering council so that not a single entity controls it.
This will make it more difficult for competition to enter the market. People will assume that "Redis" is somehow the same as Redis the software.
- skrebbel 5y agoI disagree, they now market themselves as the primary maintainers of Redis, which is true.
- tylersmith 5y agoThis is exactly the purpose of trademark law. I believe Redis (this company) purchased the trademark from antirez. Whatever compensation he received for it was specifically so this company could call themselves and their product Redis.
