Slightly distracting question and because I am very curious.
Why did you decide to opensource the project?
What is the benefit that you get in your GTM by opensourcing your project. Don't you think it is a bit more of a headache to create and manage a community around the project. Document, manage external user changes etc.
- hekike 3y agoGreat question. It has two components for OpenMeter: 1. My personal frustration when I had to do usage-metering at Stripe and wanting to have a standard for it, like how we have it for metrics. I also find it silly that every company trying to figure this out on their own. 2. We want to build usage collectors for common cloud components and third-party APIs and I think it's going to be easier to do it together as a community instead of working in silos. But yes I agree, it's more challenging to build in open but I think it benefits the customer, the quality has to be there.
