There are always going to be some people asking for more. Your app is not open-source and you already have that. Don't open-source it if you don't want to, or don't allow issues/requests for the open-source version if you don't want to.
Understand that some people will avoid your app and look for something that is open-source, for various reasons. So they can be confident they'll never have to pay, so they can theoretically fix bugs and port to newer platforms if they need to, so they can be confident there is no underhanded reporting or remote-control in the software, whatever. When looking for something, I value and prefer open-source alternatives, myself.
But that's not everyone, and that's fine. You don't have to open-source your app.
- candiddevmike 5y agoHow would you feel about an "open source contingency", i.e. this will never be abandoned, it will be open sourced instead etc? I think I could add it to the ToS, but it would be nice to have some kind of trust/foundation or something setup as "proof" etc.
