With „worse“ you mean what exactly? Probably just „not fitting my personal needs and ideas“? That doesn’t make something generally worse... or can you tell me how it’s bad for me?



Companies are usually wary of AGPL. e.g.:

That just means „not suited for everyones needs and taste“ - tge same goes for another license that a company chose. Others like it less.


Exactly. And that's what the comment you replied to said. For them, it was worse for their "needs and taste" but you wanted clarification. Now you're saying the clarification is obvious so I don't know what's your point.


Companies trying to make money off somebody else's work are not the only consideration when choosing a license.
