You're welcome to use it yourself and not pay us a dime. We're a business so we need to monetize but our core is to build a better Kafka. The nice thing is that if you've already invested in building against Kafka but you're exhausted by running Kafka, ours works better and faster. (Again, I'm biased so don't trust me, verify.)
I don’t think that holds here, Redpanda has a Kafka compatible API layer and you can 100% self-host it. Being CNCF or not doesn’t seem like a meaningful or useful distinction here.
