That's absolutely fine for them, but they shouldn't call it "Open-source" and "Fully open source" (like they do on the linked page). This software is source-available. Open Source licenses don't discriminate on the basis use of the software. Using the term Open Source for license like this is dishonest. It seeks to profit from the goodwill from actual Open Source software. | |||||||||||||||||

Maybe you're right, but FSL/BSL is arguably "more open source" than GPL. We all know GPL is a poison pill that kills commercial use, while FSL/BSL just blocks competitors from stealing your app. | |||||||||||||||||
