Nobody knows what the AGPL actually says, since it has not been determined sufficiently in court (at least in the EU) which is why the license is blacklisted by most companies.

If you want corporate adoption except AWS, you still cannot use AGPL.

I feel like there should be a license that doesn’t allow hyperscalers alone to fork without releasing source while being palatable to smaller companies
