they already have a long established Paid vs OS model going. and as such the community can fork the project and move in a direction that is not in line with any future shineneganry.

Sort of off-topic, but curious our nginx user's thoughts on F5 purchasing them now.  I have customers that use nginx in place of expensive adc/load-balancer products, like F5, and are now scared that F5 is going to ruin it, or at least start charging for any/all features as steeply as they do their mainstream appliance products.  One associate's business uses and pays for the Pro version of nginx prior to acquisition, and has already begun investigating alternatives having moved from F5 already once, holding no love for them in any way to want to deal with them again.

I just joke with folks it could have been worse, oracle, hp, or ibm could have bought them, but F5 isn't far behind in relic status imho.

Any one else here concerned to be using nginx now?

have a complete knowledge of nginx. You can access them all from the
following URL:
