I would understand if Canonical want a new cow to milk, but why are developers even agreeing to this? Are they out of their minds?? Do they actually want companies to steal their code? Or is this some reverse-uno move I don’t see yet? I cannot fathom any FOSS project not using the AGPL anymore. It’s like they’re painting their faces with “here, take my stuff and don’t contribute anything back, that’s totally fine”
Look, I understand if your boss tells you to not write Open-source/only use MIT so they can profit off of it later on. But for the people who have a choice, why wouldn’t they? I don’t see how it hurts their bottom line.
I’m middle class and here I am raging on Lemmy about software licenses LMAO
Yeah, but you and I aren’t really representative of all software people. Most of them just want to grill.
I understand. I can’t argue against wanting to earn money and be told to do something. I just wish that those that have a choice would take the extra minute to use GPL
