That's just a perpetual license to use their hosted server. You are free to use your own self hosted server for free.

They should really clean up the phrasing because it sound so sketch, like they're locking device features for money, turns people off easily.

  • what do you think it should be called? for ~$15 optional one time bucks people get 24/7 access to the entire engineering team, me, prioritized feature dev, and can earn monthly payouts from our Creator Fund. we don’t charge a subscription, obviously i’m partial but this model has serves us well. and most of the developer edition fee goes right back to the community via bounties, perks, etc.

    • Developer Access or something like that, and put part of your comment in there. I would remove the word Unlock entirely, it implies you’re locking code, as opposed to providing a service.
