PostHog Open Sources Its Core Platform for the Community
PostHog Open Sourced
We are excited to announce that PostHog has officially open-sourced its core platform. This new repository, posthog-foss, serves as a read-only mirror with all proprietary code removed, automatically synced from our main project. We invite the community to explore the codebase and direct any issues or pull requests to the primary repository to continue building together.
This repo is synced automatically from the main PostHog repo. Please raise any issues and PRs there.

Hey, Rafa from PostHog here :)
We've always been open source, so I'm not sure I understand what this is about! This is linking to our `posthog-foss` repository which has been a thing for years now, it's simply the main repository without the `ee/` folder - which is not a folder we have a lot inside anyways, we've never tried hiding anything behind it intentionally.
edit: the title originally read "Posthog has been open-sourced" but it's now updated to better reflect what this is about, thanks mods!

Open sourced ?! I believe it was open source from day one.

Does anyone know what the context for this is? Because https://github.com/PostHog/posthog exists as well

Last time I checked, Posthog self hosted was basically unusable. They have a hobby deployment script which just pulls the latest build from master which varies from “somewhat works” to “completely broken”

It's hard for me to express how much I dislike their marketing website. Sometimes when you have a "cool idea" you should sit with it a moment and then pull back.
