Keep in mind this is the same project that removed all useful functionality from the included web UI in the community edition with the excuse that it was too much effort to maintain.

This is another case of VC-funded companies pulling up the ladder behind themselves.

I understand the frustration; however using anything VC-funded, you are not paying for, is pretty risky.

It would be useful to have some kind of future feasibility risk analysis service for open third party dependencies.

Something that can be plugged into CI.

Perhaps something like this already exists?

It's still risky if you pay unless you have a contract guaranteeing what the renewal price would be.
