It looks like generated by "AI", so I recommend taka a dose of scepticism before reading.

This interpretation would mean that you could not produce AGPL licensed code which loads some code in dynamically. Like say you couldn't have an AGPL licensed web-browser which sometimes loads pages whose JavaScript's source-code is obscured. ?

it is okay for agpl3 app to consume propietary library , not the opposite that derived code must be same viral license

selectively

Generated by AI + no one cares about AGPL license compliance (and they aren't violating the AGPL anyway - your AI model is confusing the AGPL for actual GPL).

Do people genuinely not understand how stupid it makes them look when they copypaste ChatGPT output onto social media like this? Based on his tweets, Josef seems like a guy incapable of coming up with his own original thoughts.

If Bambu Lab goes after Orcaslicer, then it makes sense they will get scrutinised for the AGPL violation.
