For nitpicking like that let me do some counter-nitpicking: please write 'Open Source (OSI)', 'Open Source (TM)' or at least capitalize it as 'Open Source' so that people know where you're coming from. The commonly used 'open source' just means 'the source is in the open'. Let's not allow organizations to hijack commonly used words.

		It’s not nitpicking, the term “open source” is not usually used for this kind of thing, it would be called “shared source” I did a poll on this on a Discord server a while ago What does open source mean You can view the source code: 0 votes View + use + redistribute for any purpose: 14 votes So no, your version of it is not the common usage

You are absolutely right. I just changed the license to ELv2.

That isn't open source either.

As far as I know the most restrictive open source license is the AGPL, with a CLA that allows for commercial dual licensing.

ELv2 is not open source either.

It is not OSI® Open Source Definition™ approved, but it is open source for the common use of the term.

		The accepted term is "source available". Restrictions on usage type are not commonly accepted as open source by any community that I'm aware of.

		I don't say it to be pedantic about the term, but there are hard restrictions on usage of this tool in commercial environments.. So it's important people are aware and don't just assume it's an open source.

if you want to call it open source, why not consider AGPL?

I genuinely recommend putting something like AGPL if you wish to go towards Open Source route.
