new idea: the Offendo GPITAL (Great Pain in the Ass License). copyleft license where you are required to have a way for users to obtain a copy of the source, but you must make it more difficult to do so than the codebase you adapted your project from
@theoutrider this is incredible. this is the software version of stuart semple's beef with anish kapoor
@theoutrider @typhlosion the hell did stefan essler do omg
@theoutrider @Nine released a couple projects under a non-mit license, apparently
@typhlosion The AVCPL (Alternative Variable Chain Public License)
Anyone using this code must use it for a noncommercial purpose, but anyone who uses the code from THAT code *can* use it commercially, but, anyone uses the code from that next repo CANNOT use it commercially and so on
@shel Conditional Affero: noncommercial forks of this project can be proprietary, but commercial forks must provide their source
@typhlosion but that's just gpl when code depends on third party libraries and there's no binaries anyway
