If you want the megacorps to pay, then you should license your stuff under the AGPLv3+ and sell exceptions. If you went with a pushover license like MIT, it's your own fault they're freeloading.
- KingMob 2y agoI thought this, too, but the AGPL isn't bulletproof. Notably, Amazon has a hosted Grafana service, which is under the AGPL, yet they can still compete Grafana. The idea that a FOSS company can sell services around its code runs into the problem that Amazon can sell many of those same services better, while not bearing the development costs.
