I am very sceptical about the Java analyzer change. In my opinion the Community version gets another downgrade again. From a business perspective it might look promising, from my user perspective it’s a move towards disqualification.
I don’t care about a free tier in cloud installation. It’s a no-go to enforce all these cloud services. Sharing closed-source analyzes in the cloud is not acceptable. The “golden nuggets” must be kept within a companies network.
This kind of isolation for me looks like a desperate move to protect itself from AI.
Sooner or later, there will be some devs overtaking, creating a better open-source product again. PhotoCraft is a nice example.
IMHO. Choose your steps wisely. Some desperate devs can crush a business faster than anyone can imagine. AI is still in early steps and its fascinating what it’s already capable of.
