What if you run an open source project, and use paywalled dependencies? Now all
your contributors have to have a PayDevs account.
What if your production depends on a license key to the registry and someone
forgets to renew it. No more deploys?
What will the platform fee be? There is definitely a baseline of fixed costs to
run and pay salaries, so when will this project break even so that maintainers
start getting money?
Why does a multi-billion company gets to pay the same as a small business?
Essentially there is a cap where companies with more than 150 employees get
additional seats for free.
Again, these are just some thoughts. I have no skin in the game, because
@NordicTweets pays for all my OSS work. This
could be interesting for @DistributeAid but
we mostly built tools for ourselves and do not publish libraries.
