When your platform advertises itself as decentralized, and a simple “host bluesky instance” search results in articles telling you to join the main instance’s waiting list… that sounds too stupid for me to give them the time of day.

Point being, any forks of GNU will have a free version available, MIT carries no such limitation… making it a corpo favorite.
You can call it open source, but Free and Open source is questionable.
