Can you put in concrete terms why you see this as a problem?
Atlassian will most likely "sunset" Trello or somehow include it in JIRA.

My guess is they'll keep Trello running for a while as-is, and slowly rework it to become "JIRA Lite". It will likely have Trello-like functionality with JIRA branding, and some sort of migration path to the heavier JIRA for companies that have grown a lot.

#353Libre open source alternative.
Can be self hosted or self hosted from within Sandstorm

Fogbugz (also created by Fog Creek) is actually a pretty good alternative to JIRA.
Fogbugz seems to really be pushing their cloud stuff though, so I basically ruled it out instantly when I was researching options - it's unacceptable to have to host our code and tracker off-premises on hardware we don't control. Whereas even a small team can run JIRA or GitLab on their own hardware for a very reasonable price.

#355This is depressing. Trello is a beloved software for a lot of people. It's sad that Trello decided to sell off to Atlassian. I can't believe the same company that makes Jira is going to run Trello. SourceTree is the only software that they make that doesn't suck.

Hope to be wrong though!

The reason is it's a completely unrelated product (previously known as "stash") that Atlassian pretends is somehow connected for branding reasons.
Yep, the two products are even written in separate languages! Bitbucket Server is written in Java and bitbucket.org is written in Python. I was dumbfounded when I found out they were two separate codebases.

They will JIRA-fy it or kill it. I use JIRA and pay for it, it is hell on earth for teams of 2-5. We looked into switching to trello to reduce overhead but... It cost more for less features. So we stayed with JIRA. They will kill trello so everyone is stuck with JIRA. Someone please make a trello clone with reasonable pricing, now!
Trello was ridiculously cheap. I think you're totally out of luck if you expect anybody to make a clone that's cheaper.
Better tell the Wekan team they're wasting their time then. ;-)

Companies create software that reflects their structure and culture. The software that Atlassian makes is radically different -- and opposed in spirit -- to Trello. I think Trello will inevitably lose its Trello-ness. Hope to be wrong though!
