We're just a family working together in our spare time. We want to make self-hosted web hosting easier to start and easier to use for everyone. We don't have a business plan yet, we just want to build something useful and see what people think of it. Are you assuming it's not open source because of the github page? We used Gitea before, and we're moving everything over from there, that's why it may look a bit empty right now.
Thank you for answering. No there was no underlying assumption on the open source.
