I'm trying out GitBook for documentation, it looks nice

@Gargron Yea I thought it looked nice. The lack of open-source was a killer for me though. I cant use services that people need to pay to use on an opensource project :(

@Gargron Yea :( they do have a free tier but thats only for 2 users. Any more than that youd have to pay.

I dont mind paying for myself but if i required that of my devs on any of my OSS projects I would lose a lot of devs.

@Gargron Yea I could do that. But i also dont like to get my open source investment to be "locked into" a commercial solution. What if they later decide to raise their prices or jsut decide to block the account because someone from Iran contributed or something. Its the same reason I decided to move off github to a self-hosted gitlab. At least gitlab is open-source so they cant raise prices and cause me to be too locked in. I can just switch to CE
