For me, the license stuff is odd. They offer a license model with two tiers (user / server), yet the license seems to do nothing. Also, it is a one time payment which will likely not be substantial in the future.
Why not create a "supporter" tier for maybe $2 per month or so, this would bring some recurring income without the fears of paywalling the product.
They already accept donations as a means of continuous support. So I guess this is now just another channel for people who prefer buying a license over using github donations.
Edit: oh I just realized they stopped donations with the restructuring. Ok, that's weird then.
The only problem is that there's no way to make a recurring payment even if I wanted to, which would be more sustainable than one-time purchases.
