Hey fellow Linux enthusiasts.
I’m inching closer to releasing my program for Linux. I’ll go into details on what the program is when I release it, as it’s not really relevant to this question (IMHO).
Anyway, here are my prerequisites:
- the program will be free. I will accept donations, but the program will be free to download and use.
- open source.
- I’m happy for others to use my code, as long as I’m credited.
- I do not wish to allow others to use my code in commercial applications (as there will be mobile versions later, and I don’t want clones selling it for money, as the mobile versions will also be free.
I’m looking for advice on the best code license to choose, based on my requirements. I’d also like it if my choice of license didn’t prohibit my program from potentially being included in package managers.
I’m grateful for any advice. Thank you.
I will do so :)
Cheers!
