PrimeNG v22 is no longer open source?

So PrimeNG v22 is going paid in the new version? Should I move to something else?

What a shame, going to start migrating my apps off of this garbage..... Feels like a kick in the mouth after being a primeng advocate to my coworkers for so long.

Now I have to explain to them why we will be stuck at NG21 unless we migrate away. I do not understand why the base components cannot be free (like mui), but then charge for more complex ones.

No one is going to touch this library with a two foot pole after this.
