Any plan to make it FOSS lol ?
Uhh ... okay but why do you like not want anyone to fork it ? Its not like your gaining anything from it now atleast i think ? Like i get tge ownership aspect but wouldn't there always be proof that you are the orginal owner who made it ?
I don't know why but I think I will lose all interest in the project if the project was taken over and run by someone else. It would feel pointless for me to keep the project going at that point.
Edit: I understand just forking a project is fine. Just the act of open sourcing the app + not allowing contributors could mean someone will fork and maintain a "community edition" that does accept PRs which will lead to this issue.
That's too much thought put into it mate like apps like lift off's get abandoned and no one even wants to fork it so i'm gonna guess they are not gonna run a fork just due to mild disagreements like no one is running any forks for big foss ones.
I agree but at the same time, I have an app I've been maintaining for 7+ years now on the side. I hope to maintain Summit for just as long if not longer so I kind of have to think longer term. Also having the app be closed source just removes all of those possibilities. It's just an easy way to solve all my problems.
Actually are there big foss projects that don't allow contributors at all? If so I would be interested in taking a look.
The only one I can think of right now is draw.io
