The homepage for this project has this video [1] under the heading "See it in action". It starts off with background music that progressively gets lounder and at about 30s the vocals start to drown out the narrator. Why do people do this? Did nobody watch this video before uploading it? What was going through the mind of whoever made this video? Wild.

I hear the effect you're referring to, but I'm not sure I would have noticed if you hadn't pointed it out. It seems about as muddled as most modern sound mixing when there's talking combined with other sounds, which is why so many of us use captions all the time, now.

The dev here. Thaks for the feedback. I'll try to do better next time. I'm a single dev with cero knowledge of video editing (as you clearly noticed :P).

looked intriguing until i had to deal with the conflicting 'we are for smb not enterprise' and then 'ha and sso only available in our soon to be enterprise pricing'

not sure how many SMBs some devs work with but anything more than a mom and pop outfit and things like HA and SSO become fairly critical, especially for desktop workloads

this pattern stifles adoption of so many otherwise great projects

Thanks for the feedback! I want to clarify: HA and SSO aren't implemented yet, and I haven't finalized the pricing model. The "enterprise pricing" mention was exploratory—I'm still figuring out sustainable revenue options. My goal is to keep everything open source if possible, including HA and SSO when they're built. I'm a solo dev trying to balance sustainability with accessibility for SMBs. If you have ideas on how to achieve this, I'd genuinely appreciate an email. I'll make mistakes along the way, but I'm committed to listening and improving.

Interesting! How does infinibay compare to something like KASM Workspaces?

Deve here again. Interesting, I never heard about KASM Workspaces. I can not give you a good comparison since I did not use it. But based on what I understand, yes, we are similars in the Desktop as a Service. In my case, I'm aiming to VDI, not DAAS, but is kind of the same. The main difference is the target user. I'm aiming for a non-enterprise user, a more normal PC user. I want to make the UI and lifecicle as simple as possible. I don't think in today state I reached what I wanted, but not a bad starting point. Users will tell me.
