This hitting the front page made me do a web search review what's going on with MinIO, and... turns out it's still 100% F/OSS, released under the AGPLv3.

This is absolutely not comparable to something like OpenTofu, OpenBao, Forgejo, etc. (I guess it's more like recent CentOS forks, like AlmaLinux and Rocky Linux, or whatever.)

Personally, I think supporting it would be regrettable. MinIO is fine.

MinIO has gotten rid of the admin UI from the OSS version and is erasing documentation. Even if they stop here that's enough to need a community fork, but I don't expect them to stop here. Their obvious intent is for the OSS version to only be useful as a trial version of the commercial paid product.

MinIO gutted the UI recently. Actually fully removed it from the codebase.

So you either have to stick to a vulnerable version or have no een UI.

This form seems to target just that. So for the UI kinda similar actually.

MinIO has a CLA, so they're in the exact same situation as HashiCorp, just not as far ahead.
