have you ever filed a patent for anything you invented? Is it worth it? weird when my natural route would be to FOSS, but at the same time, one has to be smart about this shit.

Patents are dumb, generally, but they can also be used to fund tech that you don't feel like working on anymore. Generally I publish everything under Apache 2 so it's unpatentable, but I've got a handful of patents to my name that I guess other people did stuff with maybe.

I filed provisional and then didn’t have the $ to do the full patent at the time Looking back I don’t think our tech was defensible. I wish I felt like I could have an unbiased source to say if you should/shouldn’t file. Many lawyers just want the billable hours imo so they’ll say yes

Imo if it’s the process and the production specifications that you want to protect then patenting would be a good idea. But it’s a double edged sword because when u patent something it does get more eyes on ur idea/ process. If you think that people won’t be able to figure out how to copy ur process then you can maybe deprioritise that a bit lol
