    And are you sure the license is the sole reason for that? With a sample size of 2, this correlation might very well be coincidence. I’m not intimately familiar of the history of Linux or BSD, so I might be off base, but I don’t think a permissive license like MIT prevents a project from being widely adopted and becoming successful.

      I’m pretty sure the license isn’t the sole reason for that, but that’s what I think the commenter meant.
