I read this as you saying...
You gave us a bunch of stuff for free. You are now putting some conditions on that for new stuff you do. And that makes me sad.
I get the "feelings" part of this. When the world changes, even for the better, it can make us sad.
Equally this license better supports the stuff I am getting for free, and penalizes some giant corporation with buckets of money. And I keep getting stuff for free. So (frankly) I'm happy.
So meh. Is trust broken? Is the community harmed? Should we expect more moves along these lines? Do I see all decisions as clearly black and white - good or evil? Or is there more nuance?
For those upset at AWS no longer getting Redis for free, you can of course fork it and carry on developing for AWS. Those who don't like new redis can carry on running the old one. Those who want new redis can, well, download and use it.
Frankly they didn't hurt my feelings. They're developing. I still get it. I'm happy, not sad.
