Seeing a lot of chatter about logseq going to a more permissive license and also integrating chatgpt into the application. Both would make me seriously reconsider using it. The problem is I can’t find any “official” sources on what’s actually happening.

    I don’t think the licensing is a big deal. From what I gather it will be from one open source license to another based on the chatter I saw in the discord. The more “permissive” license I believe will not force other software that is used in conjunction with Logseq to also be open source? The AGPL license seems quite strict on software that Logseq is allowed to communicate with (from what I gather from the conversations).

    I guess that license change will also allow the use of actual ChatGPT instead of an open source LLM, based on my limited (not a lawyer) understanding of the situation.

    You can always not use ChatGPT if you don’t want. I personally hope it’s not baked in at all and is an elective piece of software such as a plugin.
