The Stability Promise
Because naborlydone is an independent, owner-operated company, our stability is built on a philosophy of ownership—not the "growth at all costs" cycle.
Most modern technology is designed for an "exit"—to be sold to a larger corporation or to scale until it collapses under investor pressure. This often ruins community tools and leaves users stranded when the "safety net" fails. At Neighborhood Technology Solutions, we are protecting you from that cycle.
The "No-Exit" Promise
naborlydone is not "for sale." We do not answer to investors or a board looking for a payout. This means your "Town Square" won't suddenly be sold to a data broker or a tech conglomerate. By remaining independent and self-funded, we ensure that the decision to keep these tools running stays exactly where it belongs: with the people who built them.
Our Commitment to You
Because I am in control of the code and the company, I can personally guarantee that if naborlydone were to ever cease operations, we commit to the following principles to ensure your products remain functional:
1. Open Source Release
We will release the core source code of our active products under an open-source license. This allows the community to maintain and host these services independently, forever.
2. Data Sovereignty
Your data is yours—not a financial asset. We guarantee you will always have the ability to export your information in standard, non-proprietary formats.
3. Local-First Design
Whenever technically feasible, we design our tools to work locally first. Your apps should continue to work even if our central servers do not.
A Personal Bond
This isn't just a corporate policy; it's a commitment from the person who wrote the code. Because the company is self-funded, the decision to "unlock" features or open-source the repository is entirely my own. We are building for utility and community, not for a valuation.
Our Promise on Payments
When you pay for a tool, you own its utility.
One-Time Payments
If you've purchased a product outright, it should remain functional on your device indefinitely. If cloud services are required, we will provide an open-source pathway to maintain that functionality.
Subscriptions
If operations were to cease, all active subscriptions would terminate. However, we commit to "unlocking" core Pro features in the final open-source release, ensuring your investment is preserved.
"Technology should be as enduring as the communities it serves."
