IANAL, but I think you may misunderstand AGPL licensing. AGPL-3.0 allows commercial use. Anyone can use your product commercially under this license.
Really? I will double check that, thank you so much! My goal is to allow self hosting (maybe with licences for enterprises?) while keeping the open source aspect which I think is important.
AGPL is a copyleft license, meaning anyone can use it for any purpose (including commercial use) as long as they open-source their modifications.
If you aim is to prevent commercial use of your codebase, you need a non-open-source license, something called a 'source-available' license.
