Glad to be grandfathered in, but now it’s time to take a serious look at alternatives. Do people still like FreeNAS? I currently rely on the use of mixed drive sizes (5x 4TB + 2x16TB) so it would be really annoying to switch to a RAID5 solution, but I should probably have enough time to let these smaller drives die/be replaced before switching.
I’ll be watching too. I’ll be tentatively moving forward, but if they start demanding an actual subscription, even so much as $5/year, I’ll be moving to something else. Not even that that’d be unreasonable in terms of pricing, it’s the principal of companies getting tired of honoring their own word.
So far, this change is fine with me, but we’ll see what the next change would be.

Yeah, it’s an early warning sign for sure. Hope it’s a false positive.
Tried it after unRAID. Hated it. Erased it.
