"...they explicitly allow forks like neovim for the aspects they can't find time for."

With the risk of sounding like captain obvious here, but in open source you do not have the luxury to allow or disallow forks, they just happen.

You can use shady licenses to prevent people from re-using your code, or you could not be open source. It is a kinda-explicit green flag.
