I see. I haven't decided on the commercial license yet. This might be temporary. I started this as part of another for-profit side project (for dubbing videos with AI). I may change the license later as the quote unquote "copyright owner". If I see the open-source community is active and finds it useful, I'd switch to a free-er license. Things are not super clear yet to me re what can be done with a web based video editor.

I personally don't see a problem with having the code be for non-commercial use only, but your hosted instance probably should allow commercial use. Otherwise I don't see how you're going to become the Photopea of video, which you stated as a goal.

Thanks for the feedback! I honestly had not read the license thoroughly. I just changed it to ELv2.

+1 for seeking clarity on commercial use.
I want to support some colleagues with automating some of the setup of routine video editing. Can't consider this impressive work without that clarity!
