I dont see many projects like this. Maybe because I often find out about projects through HN or naturally (e.g. someone gives a talk about it at local meetup) so I have curation bias.
What does tick me off is license changes and unclear commercial/free boundaries (and if they stay that way). I say this is worse as such companies obviously have $ to market these and so the impact is higher.
I would also add to his red flag list anything about gaming for Github stars.
- praptak 11mo agoI'd go as far as to say that commercial/free alone is a red flag by itself. The conflict of interest in such a setup is almost inevitable. The incentive is to keep the free version crappy to make money from the commercial one.
