GPL protects against someone taking your code, adding proprietary extensions, and closing off access to the source code.

True, but knowing why they went GPL, it is hilarious. They had MIT and they were mad about another MIT-licensed project using their work.

True. Was Omarchy doing that? (I'm confused why changing the license matters, if both projects are already open source and releasing all the code to the public anyways)
