Re:Grafana, Loki, and Tempo will be relicensed to AGPLv3 by jchw on Tuesday April 20, 2021 @02:32PM (#26878978)
I prefer AGPL despite that, mainly because I don’t believe a license that discriminates on use cases in such a direct manner could be compatible with either GPL or DFSG. It’s hard to directly compare virality vs use-case discrimination as far as restrictiveness goes. However, I don’t believe there is a good argument that such licenses can be considered open source.

That is fair, and we do not claim that Timescale License is open source. (Our Apache 2 core codebase however is open source.)
