Anytype is a PKMS, basically an advanced note taking app for building a second brain, managing tasks - managing life basically. They've recently "open sourced" but I'm not well versed enough to know the implications of what they've done here with their licensing. The only comment on this discussion shows disappointment and states that these licenses aren't open source some observers on Beehaw's FOSS community have shared the sentiment.

I'd love to have a discussion on this, looking between the lines and taking a critical look at who/what could be the beneficiary of these licenses.

This license grants individuals the freedom to review, modify, and utilize the code for personal, academic, scientific, research, and development purposes. However, for commercial use, consent from the Any Association is required.

Here, it isn't open source.
