What Hacker News says

I'm the founder of TinyPilot, a project that operates in the same space. I haven't really been following BliKVM, but some alarm bells are going off as I follow the links here: 1. BliKVM advertises themselves as open hardware, but the hardware repo[0] contains no sources / schematics that would allow anyone to reproduce the hardware. 2. When I looked for the hardware sources, I realized that BliKVM is redistributing TinyPilot code in violation of TinyPilot's license. [1], [2] We're licensed under MIT, so BliKVM is allowed to redistribute and modify freely, but they have to preserve our license and copyright notice.

Huge respect for your TinyPilot project (especially for the free version of the software over at https://github.com/tiny-pilot/tinypilot), but I think you were ripped off and not enough care/attention was given to your page :-( I'm not trying to be one of those people who say, you gave too much money for something I would create in 2 weeks with only 4k, but I'm trying to give a friendly advice to a fellow software engineer :-) Two things that should be fixed in revision 2.0 of your page: - If we select the "Product" option from the top menu, we're taken directly to the order page for the TinyPilot Voyager 2. If we go to the root page for the products (https://tinypilotkvm.com/product/) we get a page not found!!! - Although you're also selling something else, the TinyPilot Pro software (over at https://tinypilotkvm.com/product/tinypilot-p

ro) this isn't visible in the "Product" selection or from the main page. Maybe you should rename this selection to "Products" since you have at least 2 things you sell. The page for buying the software is only referenced from the Voyager2 page and from nowhere else.
