curious that the souce metions MIT license at top but in the bottom it says "2. Don't use our resources for closed source projects";

was that intentional? my current understanding of MIT license is a "do anything, i don't care, just don't blame me".

if i were you and wanted to use "dont use our resources" part, i would set it as AGPL or even SSPL if you are brave enough.

There's a difference between what you are allowed to do with the code, which is what the MIT license covers, and what you are allowed to do with a specific hosted platform on which the code is running, which is what that term is part of.

oh. Do... you need to specify another license for that? this is interesting.
