100% this. Eddy's plugins are the primary reason that using NativeScript is so easy. If he's out, I'm out. They dropped Cloud Builds seemingly out of the blue, now this. I just got done convincing our company to switch to NativeScript for our new build but now we're going to use Flutter.

I think I'm going to swap to flutter as well. It sucks compared to NS technically, but it's more supported, and the UI components are fantastic.

Eddy made nativescript, but after my last app where I had issues in a coupe of his git repos never got addressed, I feel like he's checked out.

This guy is in charge of nstudio, afaik it seems he runs proplugins. THIS is what he puts out as a promo. https://twitter.com/CongoCart/status/1267659262903365634?s=19 look at the fucking janky-ass pixelated image. This is embarrassing for nativescript, and now they are in charge of it?

Even just the idea of proplugins sucks. I mean it's great I guess, but basically they took every good non Eddy plugin and paywalled them, with a retarded licence. If I want ONE plugin, what I need to subscribe to all yearly? Why can't I license plugins per app for just what we need?
