alt Hacker NewsI thought they were pivoting towards close it and trying to monetize this?
That got backlash so now it’s just getting dropped entirely?
People get to do whatever they want but bit jarring to go from this is worth something people will pay for to maintenance mode in quick succession

Their marketing had shifting to trying to push an AI angle for some time now. For an established project or company, that's usually a sign that things aren't going well.

They cite a proprietary alternative they offer for enterprises. So yes they pivoted to a monetized offering and are just dropping the open source one.

That's literally what the commit shows that they're doing?
