Hey every one ! I am just posting this to share my disapointment about the current state of Cheverto. I am a junior developper and i enjoy installing stuff on my home server, getting rid of all the google amazon , facebook services. Today i was digging Awesome Selfhosted today to find a decent alternative to google photo. I tryed the so call "Free" version of Chevereto. At first i was amazed : everything i was looking for, Chevereto provides. Honestly i am pretty sure it's a good app. But i soon realised that i will have to buy a license to get all the good/critical features. At first i thought "f*** you rodolfo!" ( ok that's not nice ) .... ok every one got to work for a living... I digged even deeper coming to your forum, reading the GNU Affero General Public License. After all that digging my opinion ( and it is just my opinion ) is that you mister Rodolfo should take a look at this talk . I read your post about going open source and blablabla ... YOU ARE NOT OPEN SOURCE IF PEOPLE HAVE TO PAY FOR CLOSE SOURCED PLUGINS. Anyway look at this talk and ask yourself a simple question shall i build a community and make money whith the support i provide to compagnies/big client or shall i just sell the "plugins" i build i my basement. At the end of the day if you open source V4 community will take over your project fork it and you'll be f***ed, alone with your non free plugins. I said all of this with no anger at all and i took the time to write this post because i think your app deserve to be known and fully opensourced ( at that does not mean you have to starve ). You shall really take a closer look at how nextcloud business model work. Love.
