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
I will wait for the "AIO Immich Ultimate Keygen" by Razor1911 ☝🏻😂
They'll supply a giant paper manual, and you'll have to look through it to find the key. DRM, 1980s style.
... each time the server restart and randomly during login.
This is basically the doing of the futo non profit, they ate testing out if open source software can be profittable.
Louis Rossmann has a lot of videos about them (he works for them)
From what I get, you can just use it for free, but they don't say it is free to compell more people to buy it.
So basically WinRAR
That would make sense. They could even give you a badge or send you merch if you are a bigger supporter.
Stuff like this is why I can't support FUTO
