Sadly, the company that develops Nextcloud doesn't see a dime from that, so it's not really sustainable
What does that mean? NextCloud itself does not really host any servers themselves. If you want you can donate to them.
NextCloud makes money from companies/organisations that resell/host the software for the public or use it for their own people. Every organisation has the option not to give money to Nextcloud, but if you can afford it and don't do it anyway, it's a shitty thing to do, imo
Does Hetzner state that they do not give NextCloud money?
I know this from sources I cannot disclose, but apart from that the fact that they're not using the Nextcloud trademark/logo should speak for itself
Alright fair. Do you then happen to know providers that do indeed give NextCloud money?
