<p>Yes, just like you can clone draw.io and run that forever. Except, until you can't.<p>Like last week when Safari 16 broke any use of the command key on Macs and we received 5+ reports per hour until it was fixed.</p>

<p>I'm not quite sure why everyone feels OS means you'll have the app forever. This isn't true in my experience.<p>Adobe can buy the company that is supplying the devs for penpot the same way it bought Figma.<p>Sure the source can be reused, but you think another collection of individuals will come along and host the project in the same way?<p>You think the codebase would be developed/maintained at all if all the original devs left? History says otherwise, from the examples I've seen.</p>

<p>Isn't it "i18n"?<p>We put all the translations in a spreadsheet, <a href="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1FoYdyEraEQuWofzbYCDPKN7EdKgS_2ZrsDrOA8scgwQ/edit#gid=0" rel="nofollow">https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1FoYdyEraEQuWofzbYCDP...</a>. We didn't like the idea of storing in any more complex than a csv file.<p>All changes are shown to us in a diff before we merge, the csv is then downloaded and the i18n files created automatically after we merge the branch.<p>We've never had a single instance of abuse in over 10 years.</p>

<p>draw.io | Templates person | 100% remote | <a href="https://app.diagrams.net/?mode=device" rel="nofollow">https://app.diagrams.net/?mode=device</a><p>We're a funded, open source project, looking for someone to make a coherent set of diagram templates (<a href="https://app.diagrams.net/?mode=device" rel="nofollow">https://app.diagrams.net/?mode=device</a> , click new ).<p>This isn't a technical role. Might suit someone looking for a low pressure, low complexity role. You'll need a reasonable eye for design.<p>You'll need to be a independent worker. We'll say "take the current ~200 templates to 1k+ , make them useful to people, look good and be coherent as an overall set". You'll say ok and start on a plan to implement that.<p>Could be done part-time or full-time. If you get to 1k templates, then go to 2k, 10k if it floats your boat. Apply david@draw.io</p>

<p>Depends whether you tried to sell a license to the software, or the copyright to the software. The later you can't do, the buyer would have a fraud case against you.<p>The former is fine, as long as the license is the one that the software is publicly licensed under.</p>

<p>Yeah, it’s the google drive integration on draw.io/diagrams.net . Big companies want some cozy feeling so we tell them over 25 users per org is pay for.<p>We don’t measure it at all, but there’s plenty of companies we know are over 1k users.</p>

<p>Do a significant % of users realistically read stuff like this? We've had exactly the same ongoing problem for over a decade, and walls of text, FAQs, etc just don't allay concerns. People are just too cycnical to believe it, maybe rightly.<p>We found the best solution was to claim that pricing kicked in at certain usage tiers, whereas everything is actually free all the time.</p>

<p>I think this isn't a good strategy for the project, at a commercial level. They currently have a well define niche. Competing in a much larger market without a clear competitive advantage won't work.</p>
