Open Source Business

The intersection between open source projects and businesses has long been a fascination of mine. In many ways they’re opposing concepts which simply should not function. One is an entirely socialist idea driven by community, the other an entirely capitalist idea driven by competition.

This is probably one of the best posts I've ever written, so it's limited to members-only access. In 2019, after over a decade of writing a blog, I decided to set up Rediverge as place where I can write more openly and freely for a smaller, more specific audience.

In that time I've covered more than 750,000km and traversed 40+ countries - all whilst building a remote software business which, despite releasing everything it makes for free, now makes $3,000,000 a year in revenue. This site is the place where I talk about how, and why I do what I do.
