Agree. The $25/month stops me using it for side projects that generate small but non-zero revenue. Love the concept but not sure when I'll get to play time on something genuinely personal.

Can't you build it from source?

It does get quite complex when you need plugins.

I use the abiosoft Docker image and that has simplified it again.

I'm sure he can build it from source, but the "personal" license forbids using it for commercial purposes, so the point is moot.

Those licences are only for the binaries. The source is Apache licenced and can be used for commercial purposes for free.

The whole source is Apache-licensed, so there are no restrictions if you build & integrate it yourself.

The restrictive personal license applies to the official binaries.
