This is essentially the same as Signal. Signal foundation, despite their non-profit status, behaves like for profit entities and refuses to allow 3rd party forks of signal. If you fork and build the signal app, you better host the servers yourselves too.

Signal itself is released on AGPL-3.0: https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Android so this is probably why Molly forked.

So not sure what are you talking about.
