That is my point, AGPLv3 is rarely used due to the antics of certain free software advocates.
Ethically, there is a huge swath of developers that aligns with writing code under libre licenses, but gets turned off when they see our community filled with people that lash out at them needlessly.
- michannne 7y agoI personally have never considered anything other than the license text when choosing a license, and from my experience, anyone I've worked with chooses MIT because it makes open-sourcing easier. Never have I seen anyone in the wild discuss FSF as a reason for not choosing any GPL-class license, but maybe I'm hanging around the wrong places.
- jdnenej 7y agoAGPL is rarely used because it is incredibly restrictive and prevents sharing code with other open source projects. The world only has room for one restrictive license and GPL has taken that spot.
