    @JakeHL GPLv3 is sticky, slimy and nasty.
    It's business unfriendly. You can't use it in closed source software. Therefore you can't use it in most companies or in general, if you don't want to make your code (and product) publicly available.

    All software derived from GPL-licensed code must in turn be licensed under the GPL.

    That's the reason why even Linus Tovalds hates GPLv3. Linux still uses GPLv2.

    If you pay for it, Qt is without GPL.
    If you want to make Money with your Software, pay Qt.
    If you want to make a free project, At is free.
    seems fair

    redhat - a very big company. seems to disagree with your statements about V3 being "not business friendly" - https://redhat.com/en/about/...

    code should be open, your product isn't the code it's everything you do around the code.
