I've had the unfortunate experience of software being sold to new owners several times and in most cases it was for the worse, once I even lost all my data when the Aegis 2FA app on iOS wanted to push people towards subscription right after buying it and bungling the code. In my mind I blame the original authors as much, though, because there's no way they didn't know who they're selling it to.
