    BTW, did you knew that FOSSBilling looks similar to https://fosshost.org/ , which is going belly up in a drama (?):

    Can you elaborate? I’d like to clear any confusion and I don’t know how we look similar except the name.

    Yes, the name similarity. Why fossbilling? Few alternatives:

    Freebilling
    OSbilling
    OpenBilling

    Freedom Open Source Software... Not free
    Openbilling https://www.openbillingsystem.com

    And so on..

    I would seriously donate $ in 4 figures via crypto if Celsius starts its withdrawals!

    I want to see this become stable & popular AF so that WHMCS can be replaced!

    Just use one of the others 😄

    HostBill & Blesta have their market but idk just doesn't seem ok to me.

    There's others, if you really don't like the others then take the time to see what they offer

    We chose FOSSBilling because FOSS stands for "Free Open Source Software".
    A few ideas were thrown around, but as a team we agreed on that and felt it was the one to move forward with.

    I personally see no problem with it and I doubt we'd consider rebranding it

    Hi @localhost!

    At https://GitHub.com/FOSSBilling the README.md seems to answer your question:

    Although it is mostly used as a solution for hosting businesses, there is no reason why you can't use FOSSBilling for any other kind of online business

    I have not used FOSSBilling, so I can't comment based on personal experience.

    Best wishes! 👍

    Thanked by (1)localhost

    I hope everyone gets the servers they want!

    Here are some screenshots from my instance. Within the next few weeks we will hopefully have a demo up and running.

    Hey @everyone
    Demo website is live!

    Threw it on a server and before you improve the UI you may want to do some documentation work. Virtually no documentation past the install stage.

    Just my 2 cents good luck with the project.

    We absolutely agree. The documentation needs a lot of work. But due to us having so limited time, we would appreciate any kind of contribution from the community. We still are doing our best though.

    Here is the source for the website/documentation:

  • Our documentation does need a lot of work, both in terms of documentation for the end user and for developers.
    I've started documenting functions inside our code so we will be able to generate documentation for developers which will help elevate one issue at least.

    It'll get there. Slowly, but surely
