For me, the license stuff is odd. They offer a license model with two tiers (user / server), yet the license seems to do nothing (except showing a little badge). Also, it is a one time payment which will likely not be substantial in the future.

Why not create a "supporter" tier for maybe $2 per month or so, this would bring some recurring income without the fears of paywalling the product.

They already accept donations as a means of continuous support. So I guess this is now just another channel for people who prefer buying a license over using github donations.

Edit: oh I just realized they stopped donations with the restructuring. Ok, that's weird then.

How dare you pay continued support. You will have a one time fee and be happy.

I can't wait until they make you hand enter a 30 character license key

They'll supply a giant paper manual, and you'll have to look through it to find the key. DRM, 1980s style.
