19 daysCommercial use is not the issue. That’s already allowed but incentives. If you don’t enforce payment it won’t happen, because that’s whats happening now. Paying companies are called sponsors and that’s fine. They pay in money or developer hours to contribute. If you enforce payment, companies get preferential treatment, because why would you not prioritize payed for changes over those for regular free tier users. And even then, there exists freemium software already with extra repositories for paying customers. So even that model already exists. Im really not looking forward to using jailbroken cracked open source software because someone broke the licensing mechanism again that should enforce some users paying. Also with payment comes automatically a lack of anonymous usage, so now you need to register with your clear name to prove you are not a company and entitled to free use of the packages. And while we are at it, let’s add age and sex verification to any free software to be sure we know all about your porn fetish as well… Free software works because it is free as in freedom. No hurdles no bullshit TOS, just download and use and not even any requirement to contribute.

20 daysAll my free software is under MIT license. But charging money for using my software would entail license changes and would make the software less free and incentives change to do things that make money instead of sound software.

20 daysThen it wouldn’t be free as in FOSS. Also the incentives change and now we get enshittification.

25 daysCool build. Please be aware there is a reason that Sockets are made from a plastic that does not melt nor burn. Everything near power connections is a potential fire hazard.
