If it's AGPL it's free software, not open source

      Where did you get the idea that open source and free software are mutually exclusive?
      • okprod 6y ago
        Free software is an ethical imperative; open source is a business model. Not my idea, someone called RMS came up with that, copyleft, etc.

  It's both, i.e. FLOSS.
  • okprod 6y ago
    No, it's not both. Open source is a business model. AGPL is a free software license. Look at Wikipedia, or ask the license holder, the FSF.

      It is both. Here[0] is GNU comparing them. The Open Source Initiative also has their definition[1] of Open Source. [0] https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/categories.html https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/categories.html [1] https://opensource.org/osd https://opensource.org/osd
