Is this the case?\r\n\r\nIf that is the case, then it is possible to open-source the software and still monetise it, you might like to read [this Wikipedia article on the matter](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Business_models_for_open-source_software)! It may still be possible to open-source the software :) If you're not looking to make money from this software, then I don't see _any_ reason to not open-source it!\r\n\r\n> Photopea may have bugs and I can not guarantee anything.\r\n\r\nPart of the MIT licenses (and most open-source licenses are as follows):\r\n\r\n> THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED \"AS IS\", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR\r\n> IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY,\r\n> FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NONINFRINGEMENT.

On the ['No License' page](https://choosealicense.com/no-permission/), it says\r\n\r\n> Ask the maintainers nicely to add a license. Unless the software includes strong indications to the contrary, lack of a license is probably an oversight. If the software is hosted on a site like GitHub, open an issue requesting a license and include a link to this site. If you’re bold and it’s fairly obvious what license is most appropriate, open a pull request to add a license – see “suggest this license” in the sidebar of the page for each license on this site (e.g., MIT).\r\n\r\nSo that's what I'm doing! :)\r\n\r\nMIT would allow people to fork your software and make a proprietary version that they may make money from, GPLv3 would stop people from making proprietary versions, but they could find a way to monetise their open-source version that you didn't."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/photopea/photopea/issues/comments/434107004","html_url":"https://github.com/photopea/photopea/pull/1023#issuecomment-434107004","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/photopea/photopea/issues/1023","id":434107004,"node_id":"MDEyOklzc3VlQ29tbWVudDQzNDEwNzAwNA==","user":{"login":"photopea","id":15955558,"node_id":"MDQ6VXNlcjE1OTU1NTU4","avatar_url":"https://avatars1.githubusercontent.com/u/15955558?v=4","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/photopea","html_url":"https://github.com/photopea","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/photopea/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/photopea/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/photopea/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/photopea/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/photopea/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/photopea/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/photopea/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/photopea/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/photopea/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2018-10-29T22:38:55Z","updated_at":"2018-10-29T22:38:55Z","author_association":"OWNER","body":"What code do you mean?
