Also, I'm not party to these actual discussions internally but my _personal_ opinion is that people absolutely will (and likely already are) abusing Maker licenses. But, honestly, the venn diagram of folks who would do that and folks who would _ever_ pay for a license has very little overlap. So I don't think there's a ton of incentive to cover the use case of true personal users trying to stand up more than three gateways.

I’ll add my perspective here.

I’m a big fan of Ignition — I’m using it at work across multiple plants and still expanding. That’s actually why I started using Maker Edition at home for a smart home setup.

But honestly, the “personal use only” popup is kind of killing it for me.

In a home setup it makes it feel more like a demo than something you actually want to run long term.

Would be great if there was a less intrusive way to handle it (even just not a popup)

I also get it if you don’t really want to go after the smart home / personal space — totally fair — the current approach makes it a bit hard to justify using it there.

maybe you can use something like triggercmd or any software plays a macro.

> We're treating that as a bug. It's just that, as you might imagine, a relatively low impact bug in the explicitly unsupported variant of the product that by definition doesn't make any money isn't the highest priority item - so it's never risen to the top of the pile of things to fix.

The bug I mentioned is fixed in 8.3.5, due out around the end of the month.

EDIT 4/27: Because of an issue, 8.3.5 was pulled down. 8.3.6 will have the fix and be out ~soon.
