- josephcsible 4y ago"might" is kind of a weasel word. And don't forget Zulip exists.
- j1elo 4y agoI just don't know if that's what sustains the people working on the oss parts of the project, so it was all a big supposition on my side. Like, if someone sees a business opportunity for selling proprietary modules, to the point of hiring people, making a team, and creating an oss project to support it all, then without those commercial parts the open pieces of that project wouldn't even have been written to begin with, right?
