> MonitorControl for M1 wouldn’t have been possible if I hadn’t open sourced Lunar’s code and my reasearch on that.

Thank you for your open source contributions.

> I can’t have it fully open source and still earn money from it.

I understand. No one asked you to make it 100% open source, but it would be great if the open source parts of the app are decoupled and can be independently built.

Actually, I knew several partially open source apps, similar to Lunar. For example, Rectangle [1] has both an open source version and a pro (paid) version. However, unlike Lunar, the open source code of Rectangle is buildable. In fact, Lunar might be the first partially open source app I know that is not buildable.
