Are you serious? Self-managed MinIO on a bunch of drives vs fully managed operation-less S3. Comparing apples to oranges. And the license, AGPLv3 is a non-starter for virtually any business serious about their intellectual property.

What do you mean? Can you describe a scenario where this MinIO license matters?

I'm confusing things myself. One's okay as long as one doesn't modify the code.

If you thought "I had to publish any code changes I make to my object storage server" was bad, wait until you find out that you're not even allowed to make code changes to S3 servers!
Obviously the fully-managed nature of S3 is very valuable compared to MinIO but the licensing issues seem neither here or there.
