Many of the Python GUIs here are GPLv3, which unfortunately makes them a nonstarter in a lot of projects.

  Why should anyone care about that? If you want to sell something and keep it all to yourself, then go buy something. Qt will happily sell you a quite nice resellable component. If you want to reshare that which you got for free yourself, great, no problem there either. Say what exactly is the problem that isn't either of those two situations out loud.

    The problem is when you want to create a tool for internal company usage.

      There is no problem with that.

    Because I want to write open-source software that isn't required to also be GPLv3 as a result of using GPLv3 software.
