Interesting decision, to put the self hostable version behind the lifetime plan. The strategy i see most of the time for self hosting is a free and open source 'community edition'.
I built a basic licensing system. But in the future I want to make that more robust, and then open the aperture wider so folks don't have to be on the one-time-payment plan.
I think it's tough to prevent 100% of piracy, but hopefully there aren't too many people out there keen to install cracked/pirated financial planning software and plug in their info.
Self-hosting is such a nice touch. For me it’s a requirement indeed. Thanks for making this possible!
On a different topic, may I ask how did you find your first users? This always fascinates me and TBH it’s not an uninterested question as I plan to start a business myself related to self-hosting.
