alt Hacker NewsI'm not sure the AGPL license is a good choice for this.
None of Django, Rails, Pocketbase or Supabase, which I think count as competitors, use AGPL.
Unless you can clarify that custom hooks and schemas are outside of the AGPL license, SnackBase may be a non-starter for commercial use.
Fair point.
Honestly, I picked AGPL mainly to prevent "cloud wrapping". I definitely don't intend for your business logic to get infected by it.
In my view, the custom hooks and schemas are "content/configuration" rather than derivative works, but I get that running in-process makes that legally murky.
To clear that up, I'll add a specific linking exception (like the Classpath Exception) to explicitly exempt user-defined hooks from the license. I want this to be safe for commercial teams to self-host, just not safe for cloud providers to resell.
