Hello everyone.

I'm developing an open-source visual novel engine. And I'm struggling to choose between the two licenses: MIT and BSD 3-Clause. I wasn't much about licenses until this moment, so I have to ask someone else. Which one should I pick and why, if someone knows?

Thank you in advance.

AGPL is GPL + network services protection (preventing someone taking your code and spinning up a for-profit selling services without contribution back). If you don't care about people stealing your code, closing it, and selling services based on it, then there is no need to consider strict copyleft licenses.

    Okay, thank you very much. As for now, I hope my engine will be known enough for anyone to recognise the hoax.

    Do you know that Apple's macOS is historically a FreeBSD fork? (They have copied big parts.)

    I find it notable that FreeBSD is struggling to stay alive, and Apple's 1000000000000s of dollars in incomes does not help them at all.
