Why, unlike Redis and Elasticsearch and Terraform, was there no big community fork of MongoDB when it was relicensed?
Cockroach, Materialize, and MariaDB were all also relicensed without massive backlash, I think. But I think that's because they had fewer users at the time.
But Mongo's was the one relicense event that didn't produce so much shock that a new fork came out of it. And Mongo's stock is doing great, if that's a good proxy for their overall success.

I wonder what the difference is.
