So glad you already cover my favorite ideas for monetization! I'm considering how to monetize my own startup- currently the whole codebase is permissively licensed. I plan to sell a hosted service, but hopefully I will be in a position where I actually WANT AWS to yoink the code and run a competitive service, so it can feed into better business models. Open Core is distasteful in my opinion because it limits the growth of the open project. (no no I won't accept that relevant Pull Request, because I want to sell this feature as proprietary) GPL/copyleft is not right for me either, in fact I want to HELP people fork for their own companies and profits. So, once Amazon finally launches their competitor service, I can still: - compete with AWS on product and User Experience - sell early access/license to the open source code - sell courseware subscriptions+packages - sell first-party support - crowdfund feature development - sell consulting services
