Livecode Future - data hosting the hard way?

[Kevin Miller]

Data hosting is already optional in a "standard way" - you don't have to actually use it! You can still build your app, connect to your own database (e.g. MySQL) hosted on your own server, build a standalone or a web app and distribute it yourself.

Kind regards,

The new LC licensing is already sending a toxic message:


"Many end users? Don't use Livecode Create.


Privacy or Security concerns? Don't use Livecode Create.


Backend requirements? Don't use Livecode Create.


Hate busywork/paperwork? Don't use Livecode Create.


DIY type or On a budget? Tough call."


All unnecessary! A simple oversight:


We need a STANDARD easy way to choose LC's data hosting or not.


And a few other tweaks. Then everyone wins!
