You can still selfhost MinIO you just have to pay. You also pay for software when renting a cloud service so this seems similar.

But, as far as I can see in their site, the price for MinIO AIStor isn't even public, you have to "Request Pricing". And that's never a good sign.

    Well MinIO has some weird quirks but I wanted to point out that "open source and free" and "self hosting" are not the same.

    MinIO took away the source, not the self hosting.
