Open-Genjutsu: a free, open-source answer to $150-a-month video cloning apps
Anil Chandra Naidu Matcha says everyone is paying $150 a month just to clone videos, which he puts at $2,000 a year, forever. Too expensive, so he built Open-Genjutsu, a free, open-source alternative to the Genjutsu apps, with the repo on GitHub. His pitch: clone any video, with no subscriptions, no lock-in, no limits and no markups. It's the open-source wave in action. One builder gets annoyed, and every other customer of that tool gets a free option. The subscription respawn timer just got a lot longer.
Saving, as stated by the author: $150/month (about $2,000 a year)
I just killed all Genjutsu apps
