In a move that reminiscent of the change of Redis, they removed all the functionality of the UI of the community version and pointed to the paid version.

Which software are folks using to run self-hosted / on-premises S3? I'm looking to replace MinIO in my homelab and would like to keep a S3 management UI.
Bear in mind that actual features are NOT going away, it's just the web-based UI that has been removed with `mc` command staying intact.

why mc is needed at all? can't one just use aws s3 CLI with environment variable pointing to MinIO S3 backend endpoint?

I think the changelog is pretty clear on that, but I assume for many users this is not a "just" thing and matters a lot. Enshittification started before this change, but now it's really obvious where they are heading.

In my personal opinion, this is a perfectly fine change. The company has to make money. Nudging corporate users (who are incapable of running `mc`) towards purchase of license to have a web UI is a nice solution, I'm all for it.

This PR that removes away all the features in the UI: https://github.com/minio/object-browser/pull/3509 . The discussion around this PR is locked.
I think that "Deprecated support" has another meaning. I hate when this kind of things happens.
Also any alternative that people are using that is similar?
