in my mind it's kinda the point of Ladybird to have a permissively licensed implementation of web standards, I like permissive licenses if only because they reduce legal risks

I prefer permissive licenses but how do they reduce legal risks?

[–] schnurrito@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

Copyleft licenses are harder to comply with, they usually come with clauses that can be interpreted in different ways, termination clauses, etc.

Ah. Gotcha. Agreed.
