What I meant was that there is no diff between new license and old license. I thought it was a force push but it seems it was a rewrite instead.

While I was slightly surprised, I have no complaints at all. From what I can tell, the new version is entirely your's. You are entitled to change your license. I am mildly concerned about whether there'll be paid features or ads in the future but I won't complain about what doesn't yet exist.
They do not have a CLA, and they accepted code from other contributors. Hopefully the rewrite removed all code from third parties.
Debian does not seem to have this in their repositories.
I urge users to fork the last open version. Do not contribute to a proprietary codebase for free.
It seems HN hides the # segment after the URL.
Here's the LICENSE change: https://github.com/ThaUnknown/miru/compare/v6.1.0...v6.3.7#d...
They rewrote the entire commit history so there isn't a specific commit history where the license was changed
