Proposed license change to Blot's source code?

Hello, I'm thinking about changing the license of Blot's source code. At the moment, Blot's source code is licensed under CC0, a public domain dedication that allows unrestricted use, modification, and redistribution without attribution or copyleft obligations. I am considering switching the license to AGPLv3, a copyleft license which requires that anyone who modifies and distributes (or provides network access to) Blot must release their modifications under the same license. This shift would prevent proprietary use of Blot's code and ensure that any derivative works remain open-source. Obviously this would only apply to new contributions going forward. Why? I'm developing one-click deployable containers to make Blot simple to self-host I anticipate there will be other people offering hosting services for Blot, especially in different countries / legal jurisdictions I want to ensure these services keep their source code public Please let me know if you have any objections, thoughts or questions.
