I’m just trying to understand what you’re upset about. Immich is released under one of the most user-protecting licenses out there, without a CLA, and every communication from everyone on the dev team has emphatically committed to keeping it that way. You’re over here saying “yeah but they might change it some day” and sure, maybe, but it would be a gigantic pain in the ass, there’s no indication they plan to do so, and you could say the same thing about literally any other open source project. And even if they did change it, we’d still have the most recent GPL version to fork! What more could you possibly want? All that’s left is a guarantee of ongoing maintenance, which I’m sorry but you are not entitled to that.
Edit: and the best way to ensure ongoing maintenance is to fund the project. Devs gotta eat.
