I think Nix should fix their horrible UX before trying to market it too much.

Given Hashicorps frankly insane pricing strategies, I think they're feeling too mighty to be worried. They've partnered with ALL of the largest industry giants in the cloud space. That must give them a pretty strong sense of secur

As someone who is not a direct competitor to Hashicorp, why would I use this over Vagrant? As someone who is a direct competitor to Hashicorp, why would I use this over making my own fork?

Knowing Hashicorp and their beautiful pricing models, the license fees are going to be, literally "oh idk, we'll let you know at the end of each month, ok?"

This will be dead within 3 months. The naivety with which your company made this fork tells me all I need to know about Digger as a product.

The only thing it can mean is Spacelift have to license Terraform from Hashicorp, and pass the cost onto the customer, making them less price competitive than before. That's literally it. I'm confused by the moral high horsing PR

Why would you want to fragment the ecosystem like that, in response to a license change that is a non-event unless you're profiteering off of Hashicorps work?

It is, by definition, impossible to use and not contribute. To use is to contribute. As soon as you install a Hashicorp product, before you even run it, you have already contributed.

Not possible, at least for vault and terraform The way the architecture works, any fork would have an impossible task to take off and maintain compatibility

Most TF providers are not maintained by Hashicorp, but by the company whose product the provider integrates into. Development of the provider is an investment the company makes to lower CAC.

I think "easy for humans to edit" is where I mostly disagree with. To this day I have not worked with anyone that understood the .toml format.

It's probably because pyproject.toml is the direction in which the python ecosystem is going. On that note, I will never understand why they chose .toml instead of just json or yaml..
