Chat GPT please summarize GPL 3.0 in simple way π boom
The GNU General Public License version 3.0 (GPL-3.0) is a widely used open-source license created by the Free Software Foundation (FSF). It grants users the freedom to use, modify, and distribute the software covered by the license. However, it imposes certain conditions, such as requiring derivative works to also be licensed under the GPL-3.0 and providing access to the source code. It's designed to ensure that software remains free and open for all users.
Chat GPT please tell the difference between GPL and MIT π
The main difference between GPL-3.0 and the MIT license is their approach to licensing derivatives. While GPL-3.0 requires derivatives to also be licensed under GPL-3.0 and share their source code, the MIT license allows derivatives to be licensed under any terms, including proprietary ones, without requiring the sharing of the source code. Essentially, GPL-3.0 is more restrictive in terms of ensuring software freedom and openness, while the MIT license is more permissive.
DAMNNNN
From the looks of it MIT license is the way for NOSTR clients
Please Login to reply.
I guess most of the clients MIT
Why exactly? MIT lets the derivative be closed source while GPL3 does not allow that. What's the benefit to allowing closed source?
GPL3 ensures that nobody makes a clone and then leaves Will behind by not sharing the changes.
