- haikuginger 11y agoGPL is by nature limited. All viral licenses are.
- cyphar 11y agoYou're not limited as a user. As a developer, the only "limitation" is that you have to provide the code with the binaries.
- belorn 11y agoAll software licenses are limited. Im limited to following the BSD license conditions in BSD licensed software or I won't be able to redistribute the software. The only non-limited license is the non-license that goes under the name public domain, but then I am again limited to only use software that was developed 100 years after the developers death. Some punched cards "programs" from IBM in the late 1800s should thus now be the first unlimited "software" which everyone is free to use.
