While technical discussion about those details would be interesting, HN is also a strong entrepreneurial community and your license choice has a big impact on whether or not a business would choose to depend on your product. I would not choose to build on a BSL licensed foundation for my product because of real business concerns with vendor lock-in. I would also not choose to contribute to a BSL licensed code base because the CLA means I am not free to use the code base on equal grounds with other contributors (DragonflyDB Ltd in this case).

Because of these two things, I didn't spend a lot of time looking into the technical details and therefore can't really say much on them. By all means it sounds like a very interesting piece of technology- but the license makes it useless to me.

Please do not express your opinion as the opinion of the majority. Instead of discussing license choices, create your project and open source it as you like. Do not tell others how to build their business, especially on HN.

I never expressed my opinion as that of the majority. I expressed my opinion as my opinion, and I can express whatever opinion I want to and discuss whatever I want to on Hacker News, so long as as Y Combinator (Who owns Hacker News) is okay with it.
