He is right.

As a somewhat related issue, #74 can be fixed at the same time.

Well, I'm not the most knowledgeable when it comes to managing licenses and stuff like that. However, I believe the license for the translation files can be different to the extension itself - correct me if I'm wrong. The reason I made it like this is they don't allow free hosting for AGPLv3.

I dont think they dont allow free hosting for AGPLv3. (Link?) I think it wasnt just option? I think one email could do it.

They mention on their website:

License of the translation (does not need to be the same as the source code license).

The libre plan is offered for all FSF and OSI-approved licenses. AGPLv3+ included. I think it is just sorted elsewhere in the list, but you will find it.

The idea is to avoid any sort of complication or incompatibility between GPLv3+ and AGPLv3+.

Well, I have no idea when I applied for hosting it told me that I had to change the license to a libre one and it was AGPLv3+. Anyways, I changed it back. Thanks for the feedback!
