With AGPL, if you block AWS, you also block other users unless you have additional licenses for your software, like Mongo and Timescale have to do, and I'm not sure people would want to deal with that when free alternatives like MySQL exist. With Amazon, they were able to make their own Linux flavor so they could pay Red Hat less. I think if Linux itself sold enterprise licenses, we'd end up with a much more fragmented or corporate batch of OSes taking its place, and I think that's very negative for the ecosystem in general. No one wants to deal with that :/ I'm surprised people want to deal with MongoDB at this point.
