I mean anybody can fork it and keep developing it without a CLA under AGPL3.
Yeah it’s easy to fall into a negativity bias instead of doing a risk benefit analysis , the company could be investing money and resources that could be missing from open source projects, especially professional work by non programmers (e.g. UX researchers) which is something that open source projects usually miss.
You could probably figure it out by going over the contributions.
Of course, I am not against software being open-source, and I much prefer this approach of companies making their software open-source, but it’s the CLA that really bothers me. I like companies contributing to the FOSS ecosystem, what I don’t like is companies trying to benefit from free contributions and companies having the possibility to change the license of the code from those contributors
