There’s licenses that restrict monetary use. Not saying that’s the best thing to do, but that certainly would mean you only provide it to people who don’t make money from it, which might still be a lot of people.
No it doesn’t. You can resale GPL & you can even ask money just to get access to the source code & still comply with the license. You can host it without sharing anything (AGPL), & apparently you can train a LLM model on it which can then regurgitate the code which also apparently seems like it will be legal.
Don’t license it as free to use then.
Hope you realise the entire point of open source is to deliver value to OTHERS

You can do that with GPL. It prevents massive corporations from essentially leaching off your hard work but can still be free value to everyone else.

Then you can’t make good software… Reinvent the wheel over and over again
This is what we call a decision. Choose.
You can license it GPL though
