What's the difference between OPNSense and pfSense?

I've read this:

https://www.firewallhardware.it/en/pfsense-vs-opnsense-technical-comparison/

My only problem with pfSense is it seems that not only did they change
their license, but they seemed to de-priortize people who want to use
pfSense without paying for service. The OPNsense web page at looks
kinda commercial, but at least they have an independent section called
"Users".

How do you feel about OPNsense vs pfSense?

Thanks,
