After five years as open source champions, Cal.com is going closed source. This wasn’t an easy decision, but in the age of AI-driven security threats, protecting customer data has to come first. Cal.diy will continue as an open option for hobbyists.

Cal.com hasn’t been truly open source for awhile despite the marketing. Just the barest minimum of the app is open source. I imagine this is a way to absolve themselves of maintenance responsibility on the public repo.
