Huge Affero (AGPL) warning.
Do not touch unless you understand how the license works and want to do so anyway.
- thih9 3y agoCan you be more specific? In what ways exactly it is more dangerous than other open source licenses in this case?
- chii 3y ago> more dangerous only if you intend to produce a derivative work for which you intend to sell, and thus do not want to reveal said derivative to others. AGPL is the best license available for open source imho.
- thih9 3y agoThat was my understanding too, I don’t understand how this would be seen as dangerous in this context, I’d also view it as a benefit.
- frabcus 3y agoI see this as huge Affero (AGPL) praise! It would be great if the license was used more. I'd much rather contribute to something where sharealike extends in some way across networks - software doesn't link in binaries, as the GPL does cover, as much these days.
- p_l 3y agoGPL never talked about linking, it's probably the single most misunderstood aspect of GPL. You can in fact have GPL bw applied over network IPC even

- jholman 3y ago> Do not touch unless you understand how the license works and want to do so anyway. Which is the license that you think it's safe to touch when you don't understand how it works?
