PySimpleGUI has changed business model #4

Open Gikkman opened 5 months ago

Gikkman commented 5 months ago

I made a clean install recently, and the latest version of PySimpleGUI gives you 30 days of trial, and then you have to register an account to use it. So I suggest pinning the version in the requirements.txt to 4.59.0 ('cause they janked the more recent releases).

As a non-commercial user, you can have a free license for one year with free renewal thereafter.

I know there's several people with very limited programming experience that use this project, and they won't necessarily know what to do, or if it is normal/expected. Its not directly a normal procedure when using small opensource projects like this. I am not saying you're wrong, you can get a free license. But I think it makes it challenging for inexperienced users.

I've spent some of my freetime to rewrite all the GUI in Qt. If you wanna try it, it's on my branch here: https://github.com/Malacath-92/print-proxy-prep/tree/QtPort image

Also just a note, I couldn't pin the old version for PySimpleGUI last I tried 'cause they purged their old versions from the pip repo.
