		Eikon on May 23, 2021 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Monetizing open-source is problematic I have a hard time understanding the problem. Retool is paying a fakercloud subscription and using it to power their product which does not sounds like an issue at all?

I may have missed it but I didn't see anywhere that Retool is paying for a subscription. Even if they are, I'm not sure that entitles them to free use of the Fakercloud CDN.

Retool is a $500/mo supporter of faker.js on Open Collective. Fakercloud has a $500/mo enterprise plan. So it kind of adds up I guess.
