Hi folks! 👋 Is there perhaps a free tier developers at companies to experiment? So not open source, but still very far from production.

Hey @Dima Tisnek 👋 Welcome to SigNoz community! Not very sure what you mean. You can start with our open source community edition free of cost. Here are docs on how to get started https://signoz.io/docs/install/

I guess I could, but that would be cheating, wouldn't it? Since my project is decidedly closed source, proprietary, made by a company ultimately for some paying customers. Yet, I'd love to experiment "for free" while the project is in the very early stages.

ah, got it. are you looking to bundle in observability with your own product?

yes
