OSI would: https://opensource.org/license/apache-2-0

Edit: I'm wrong, see below.



It's Apache 2.0 + custom clauses excluding any commercial/for-profit usage.


My mistake, I should've paid more attention.


The Apache License is, however the additional terms the author has made to the license make it not open source; because the additional terms supersede the Apache License.

It looks like Apache Licensed but its the BSL (ElasticSearch, Redis, Mongodb license path) in disguise.

Author should have used AGPL if he wanted to make a product that isn't easily/eagerly SaaSified.


I've added extra explanation in a discussion I've opened on the project: https://github.com/Dokploy/dokploy/discussions/3


It probably was open source before the license was modified to prevent commercial use, which is not open source.
