Because people running sidekiq with their Ruby app on production don’t care about cross-language queue. If you pay for Pro or Enterprise you don’t want any major changes that are potentially breaking.

The only reason we pay is because the pro version doesn't lose jobs if a worker crashes. You would think that would be a core feature.

Sounds like Mike found a good feature that would encourage companies to purchase a license. I have a tremendous admiration for the business he's built.

You would think not losing jobs would be a required feature in any job queue software product.

A free software doesn’t have to be anything because it’s free.

Free software doesn't even have to work. It can be an empty git repo. Your comment doesn't move forward the conversation.
