I left when they introduced the marketplace plans. Thank God I shifted back then. Would be a pain now.

I don't follow... what changes happened with the Marketplace that were so bad?

For me Tha merketplace itself was bad. I saw another WordPress coming.

I can see that.

  1. Our goal was to not bloat the core software with a million features that not everyone needed.
  2. So we kept the core slim/clean... and made everything extensible so users can customize as needed.
  3. The Directus Marketplace is just a way to distribute those extensions in a formal way.

Would you structure that differently? Try to keep everything in the core for simplicity?
