An update to the Timescale license
It would seem these folks listened to the criticism of their Timescale License here on HN and took it to heart. Right to repair, right to improve, and the gating of enterprise features were the only serious criticisms, and they've been addressed. I tip my metaphorical hat to them.<p>I'm curious to see if some vocal people here will still not be satisfied with anything short of a OSI-approved FOSS license. Really the only practical limitation that I can see now is if you're AWS you can't launch a competing service with Timescale by leeching off their software without paying for it. That's a glaring short-coming of FOSS licenses that really should be addressed. Until then I expect this kind of almost-FOSS license to become more popular in the future. We're seeing it from many of the recently founded open-source companies in the cloud era.
