@drwho The difference in my mind is that AGPL doesn’t come with a builtin business model to fund the legal fights when they become necessary. Such a copyfarleft license does by charging capitalist firms a licensing fee for using the software. These funds can then be used for paying project developers and funding license enforcement for those that choose to use the software without paying the licensing fee @linux
I ask from a position of ignorance, because I simply don’t know: Has anyone actually done this? Has it worked?
Not yet.
Copyfarleft has not had a whole movement built up around it, and no one has standardized the licenses.
