> Gitea goes commercial, making previous community contributions into essentially free labor for their profit
Gitea (like Gogs) is under MIT license, which allow commercial applications. Is the new expectation of open source that we grant everyone license terms that they shouldn't use? I don't understand this at all.
Forgejo is under GPL-3.0, which also allows commercial applications. Should we expect the Forgejo community to start name-calling any company that would use Forgejo according to its license terms?
There's a bit of a difference between a downstream commercial host and turning the open-source project into open-core. Gitea went from a rotating governance to deciding half of the decision-makers must now come from a for-profit company that now competes with the open-source offering.
