Apple made me realize that I should choose AGPL as a license for my own projects, because I don't agree with the implied contract values of X11/MIT or BSD licenses anymore.

The latter licenses I choose now only for things I absolutely don't care about and won't spend any time on. Things that I care about I license under AGPL. If someone wants it fixed by paying development time, great, then just offer it dual-licensed AGPL/EULA.

Kudos to you. It's wild how poorly hacker culture has learned this lesson.
