Unless you’re making changes, isn’t it enough to just link back to the original repo? That said, I’ve also been in the camp that avoids AGPL-except maybe as a way to sell a commercial license while still being "open source," or just to be obnoxious. And honestly, I am still failing to see the upside in being obnoxious for its own sake.

It's AGPL because Ultralytics requires it to use YOLO: https://github.com/blakeblackshear/frigate/pull/10717

I'd make it MIT tomorrow if you know a workaround or alternative model

Thanks!

Both for the explanation and for being a person that respects the license even if you (like me) don't particularly like it.
