Is there a subscription with this?
I'm just wary about anything with a '+' and I assume there is a subscription attached to it.
Looking at this it doesn't look like it.
- khurs 4mo agoSays: "It is fully open source under the MIT license"

- dandaka 4mo agoNaming is worrisome!
- bouk 4mo agoI think that used to be the idea but then they got acqui-hired
- gordonhart 4mo agoMy first thought too. "$name+" is strongly coded now as "subscription service for $name"
- TheCoreh 4mo agoYeah, not only the name: they’re also going with various semiotic signs that are strongly associated with a subscription service, including their website design, choice of typography, and even the press release–style copy. Looks like they have been acquired by Cloudflare, and pivoted to fully open source, but they haven’t really tweaked their messaging to make that fully land with unsuspecting visitors. It’s kinda like the reverse situation of open source projects that switch to a source available license, but keep the aesthetics of an open source project. Kinda funny!
