The fact that they won't use AGPL software isn't propaganda lol. They literally won't use it. You may disagree about whether that's good or bad for the ecosystem, but it's a fact that most serous internet-based companies (and what tech co isn't these days?) won't touch it.

As the article points out though, while most "serious internet-based companies" won't touch AGPL, they will engage with dual-licensed software. They use AGPL software under proprietary license, after paying for it.

At risk of sounding pedantic, legally speaking there is no such thing as using "AGPL software under proprietary license". In that case it is simply software under a proprietary license. This is an important distinction, legally speaking.
