    No clue about this instance but I’m pleased to see in general the business model where the code is all open source and support can be paid for. That would be a pretty fair business model for me as a (company) customer, assuming the product meets my needs. One example of this is XCP-ng, a virtualization OS, competing against VMware, but all open source and with paid support. Great for homelabbers too

      The problem is that other companies can offer support as well, and they can do it for cheaper because they don’t have to finance development with that.
