> This is literally the future open source promised and people wanted: the freedom for a business to be flexible in regards to technology and not get tied into unpleasant vendor contracts and demands.
Oh the irony. Open source is just a development model, while Free Software, if anything, it meant to provide freedom to all users, not just business.
Reinforcing the public cloud oligopoly only reduces such freedom.
So now it's based on the caveat that only small business and solo devs should benefit from the good parts of open source and anyone with sufficient scale should have to pay because Foss based startups deserve to exist regardless of their business quality and that business of certain arbitrary scale should then apply morality to their involvement with Foss.
Well, write the licenses and let's see what traction they get. I'll wager that they will be shot down by pretty much everyone
