"Now announcing UnRAID 2, UnRAID original will no longer receive updates as we focus our resources on UnRAID 2."
And "UnRAID 2" will only have a subscription model, and people will the OG lifetime license won't be grandfathered into the new license.
Like Adobe and Photoshop.
I'd say it'll happen before 2030.
But I may just be cynical at this point.
It might. I take the risk. At that point, storage cost will be lower, I'll just buy a bunch of 20TB drives and build a truenas NAS. In the meantime, I'm satisfied with unraid as I don't have to spend 2k+ to get 50TB of usable space.
