Previously LGPL, now re-licensed as closed-source/commercial. Previous code taken down.

Commercial users pay $99/year, free for personal use but each user has to make a free account after a trial period.

Actually the LGPL legally binds the dev to distributing those versions. So you're just a troll. I am done replying to you but it has been fun watching you try to justify shit in the name of compensation.

You've been unable to back up a single thing you said in this conversation with proof.

You had to walk back your accusations towards the dev, and you're unable to actually point to the passage in the LGPL that supposedly binds the dev.

All you're able to do at this point is call me a troll. You're a parasite in the FOSS community who expects the work of others to be provided to them for free in perpetuity, and it pains you to realize it can be taken away from you.

You're a dumbass who can't read and doesn't understand foss.

And that's how we know you're out of arguments.

Who's we here? You're getting downvoted to oblivion because of your hostility. I am merely replying in kind.
