Even a lot of the open source stuff is runs by companies listed on Crunchbase with millions of dollars of VC backing. That software isn't gonna maintain itself if the cash runs out.
Open source may be safer than proprietary software in that regard, but it's still not a guarantee. Still far preferable IMO.

- quickthrower2 3y agoThat is true it gives you time to migrate.
- lmm 3y ago> That software isn't gonna maintain itself if the cash runs out. No, but you can maintain it yourself, or hire people to, or worst case you can at least run it and accept the bugs. You're not going to just get in one morning and find out they've turned off the servers and all the stuff you had in their system is gone.
