Fair dos. In general I'm in the camp that proprietary software using open software isn't as bad as them using exclusively proprietary code, but enforcing has always been pretty hard so I've never been one to complain when people do libre-forks of stuff.
That being said, I did see post a while back that was a great example of what's possible under the best case scenario!
A notable part of Evan Boehs getting Truth Social to be AGPL complaint is that they are not the copyright holder, which gives a lot of hope. An "end user" suing for compliance hasn't been concluded in court yet (there is one in process SFC vs [edit] Vizio). If that succeeds then perhaps getting compliance will be easier in the future!
Sadly getting compliance also includes them just engineering the non-compliant code out - so they enjoy the use of free software for some time without ever giving back.
