Just looking for productive discussion as to what should drive design decisions / choices. I have some projects I would eventually like to make available for sale..and I really would like to host my own licensing software so that I keep everything in house except the payment portion. (I deal with PCI compliance enough with my day job)

So, lets say you want to sell your programming project / application or whatever. What licensing stack are you going with? For example, lets say you want to limit installs of your application to X number of machines. Do you use something like keygen.sh community edition? ChargePanda? I'm just curious what experience people have in this regard and what licensing model they went with.

I'm asking it here because I think its tech related since your code has to support the licensing stack. (I use a mix of C#, Electron / react, etc) so discussion on developer experience plus application stack is also welcome. That includes discussion around how you lock down your application to only working when licensed / or if you support trial license etc.

Thanks!
