Sounds too much like an advertisement.
Also we need to watch out when diving into Polars . Polars is VC backed Opensource project with cloud offering , which may become an opencore project - we know how those goes.
- gkbrk 9mo ago> we know how those go They get forked and stay open source? At least this is what happens to all the popular ones. You can't really un-open-source a project if users want to keep it open-source.
- stingraycharles 9mo agoDepends on your definition of popular; plenty of examples where the business interests don't align well with open source.
- v3ss0n 9mo agonot many can maintain a complex project in full time.
