Monetization and Licensing on replit
I have two questions about replit in general.
- For "repls" hosted on replit, are you allowed to make money/monetize off of it? Specifically, using ads. (I have seen people on replit get in trouble for this but the TOS does not say anything about it so I want to make sure)
- According to the Replit docs:
Content published to a public repl or a Classroom are automatically published under an MIT license
Does this mean if I use a license such as the GNU AGPL, will my code still have to be MIT licensed?
Thanks to all answers ;)
If the TOS doesn't deny it, technicially it allows it?
(I take no responsibility for any consequences received for following this logic)
To question 2 I think you can use a different license. The MIT thing probably applies to those without licenses. For question 1 idk why i answered this second probably not without repl getting something. I mean you are using repl as the hosting/compiling site so if it even is allowed to monetize things repl probably should get a share. I can't confirm 100% but Im just using common knowledge.
step 1: make ur repl private (then you can make it any license)
step 2: don't post it to talk (duh)
step 3: make sure ads are all tos compliant
and you will be fine.
sorry it has to be private so you can use any license you want
@EpicGamer007Also, trying to profit while using free products aimed at helping the community doesn't seem nice (legal, but not ethical). Maybe ask for donations?
yeah that's a good idea too
