    So, due to these naive believes, I started to work on nut.js under Apache-2.0 license, because I thought that if companies and individuals alike are able to permissively use my software, they would also be willing to support me in return.

    lol

      “I gave my work out for free, no strings attached!”

      Using a copyleft license instead gives me a chance to get access to any changes they make if they redistribute my code.

      Going proprietary isn’t an option: that denies others helping me and denies my user’s software freedoms.
