You should absolutely use whatever license you want but the actual price tag a nonstandard license adds is 'far fewer people will be able to try or contribute to your project'. Which might be totally ok for your purposes, just pointing it out since many people who dabble in 'license as messaging' for fun aren't aware of the impact/implications.

This has become clear since I started using the license, fortunately what I do is so niche that few contribute :)

I understand the implications but I also don't like big-tech to stealing my code and leaving me out in the cold. In sense, this license is a snub of the wall-gardens that big-tech has become. This software is something that they can't simple integrate into their product and sell on for profit. It stays out of the wall gardens.

    Oh I'm definitely not arguing with you over what license you ought to have on your own project for your own reasons. You want a zany license, let your freak flag fly!
