Real-time crash reporting tool Sentry raises $9M
<i>sigh</i> - I really love sentry to bits. Very responsive support, all open source code, nice user interface, no nagging for additional services and very fair price (to the point where it's much cheaper to just host with them rather than trying to self-host, despite the thing being extremely well documented and fully supported for self-hosting).<p>I wonder what we'll lose first before they will eventually be sold to get the money back for the investors :(<p>Yes. I'm cynical, but it's always the same path in which good products eventually are shut down or get way too expensive.<p>On the other hand, I would be extremely happy if it was Sentry to prove to the world that you can in-fact take $9M in investment as an Open Source project and still stay independent, keep your original values and not be shut down by an eventual buyer.
