> I doubt they'd gain much adoption if it started with BSL at first place

Adoption is one risk, https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform/graphs/contributors is an entirely different risk



Sentry, another BUSL licensed project, seems fine? https://github.com/getsentry/sentry/graphs/contributors


Given their exactly similar rug-pull stunt, in the context of what I was saying one would need to be able to load that link with date range restrictions showing before and after the rug pull, and (of course) exclude Sentry employees in order to show community contributions

I don't have the emotional energy to dig up such a report, but I'd be stunned if Sentry receives the same outside contribution rate as it did before


You can scroll through that contributor list and see that each graph clearly shows most new contributors were post-2019...
