This is what happens when you do not pay for your tools.

They become 'discontinued'.

Can you elaborate?

I'm asking to you explain the "you don't pay for your tools" part.

Developers rarely pay for their dev tools - except if it is far more expensive to replicate and it being closed source.

Hence why we keep seeing the likes of Astral, Bun and Tailwind CSS struggle in keeping afloat and have to seek an exit, especially when they are open source and have raised money from investors.

Continue is no different.
