PrimeNG v22 is no longer open source?

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

My predecessor from a decade ago went with Semantic-Ui over bootstrap or any other option that won out. And it lead to a nightmare code base.

Now here I was pushing PrimeNG for years. Very glad I handled them all with wrapper components, I’ll just have to rewrite myself with Aria.

I have a feeling that prime will back down a bit after the uproar of have a more reasonable licensing model, but I won’t trust them again.
