Fair enough! I just can’t make all my hard work open source.. I’m trying to build a business. There’s a time and a place for open source, and I’d only be helping my competitors as an indie developer.

With all due respect, your "business" is static web hosting, which is not exactly a revolutionary or paradigm shifting concept. There's likely little to no competitive advantage in any of the code you've written, or disadvantage to open sourcing it (although it's understandable if you don't want to open source it, then be left on the hook to maintain it.)

It's fine if you want to try to make money with a passion project, but as far as the market is concerned, you already lost the race to social media and the cloud before you even started. You're not actually competing with anyone in any meaningful sense, any more than Hacker News is competing with Reddit.

If my concept was easy to implement they wouldn’t be asking me to open source it :) 1MB is over half a year of hard word I only make it look easy

It's a static file host with a nosql database and a text editor. There's a very clear migration path if you don't want to use their service.

and LetsEncrypt out of the box, which is gravy
