There are different versions of the GPL license, ranging from the lightweight copyleft LGPL to the strong copyleft AGPL.

But if the LGPL is a lighter copyleft version of the GPL, why isn’t there a lighter copyleft version of the AGPL?

    You want a weaker version of the AGPL, that’s what the GPL is.

    From my understanding in terms of strength between the three, it’s:

    LGPL (weakest) > GPL (middle of the road) > AGPL (strongest)
