I tend to avoid viral GPL/LGPL projects: 1) Because I wanna have the freedom to eventually sell the software based on third party libraries. 2) Even if I would want to open source parts of the project, I mostly can't open source all of it, because of proprietary code from third parties (e.g. bought assets from Unity Asset Store). 3) I have no interest in a license telling me how I have to license my own source code.
