Comment on Show HN: Triplit – Open-source syncing database that runs on server and clientparent

Comments

What types of usage do you think the AGPL would prevent that the GPL license would have allowed? What situations were you trying to prevent?

From my understanding, if someone were to create a private fork of Triplit Server add some modifications and then launch a hosted service (i.e. serving the modified Triplit Server over the internet) they wouldn't be compelled to open-source their modifications under GPL but would under AGPL.
