> Would you rather contribute to MIT software where everyone can make proprietary fork?

In my case that is it.

I'm totally fine with people taking my MIT licensed code in a MIT licensed project and running with it.

However, working for free on someone elses code base knowing that they can always go commercial with it or do whatever they want while I and the rest of the community is stuck with AGPL, that is something I'd rather avoid, if possible.
