cool, makes sense. Thanks! I think often devs (me lol) are suspicious of free since we are in on or aware a lot of the data selling/ad surveillance schemes.
I love the general ideas around free and powerful p2p functionality with hosted management or higher level features.
We will most likely go with an open-core model. The main part will stay open source (the Core OS extension is under GPL3, and everything SDK-related is MIT).
For paid features, we have several ideas: a hosted management plane to configure and control the swarm (with company rbac integration) when one of the nodes is connected to the internet; advanced security (currently no access management or authentication is happening); sophisticated orchestration primitives; and LoRa connectivity (to scale the mesh radius to miles).
Appreciate your feedback on this!
