    DuckStation recently changed to a source-available license that prohibits distributing modified versions of the software and prohibits commercial use. Before, it was GPLv3.

    Also OpenOffice, Emby, Audacity, Android (AOSP) (soft forked to LineageOS and GrapheneOS, but no hard fork)

      What’s the difference between a soft fork and a hard fork, besides being careful with your teeth?

        Soft forks try to maintain code compatible so changes can apply to both code bases. Normally done when there’s hope of a future merging of the code lines. They rarely work, as eventually thing get hard.
