The entire point of choosing to use open source projects is that if you, the author, begin to enshitify the product (Or simply start to move in a direction different from users) users can fork the project and carry on an un-enshitified version.
If you can't compete with the author, you can't do that. So what is the point of picking software using this license over traditional closed source?

I don't want to compete with Sentry (or a variety of other open-like applications), but I _do_ want to support my employers identity provider, fix bugs (and push them back), and maybe even add features that I/my team use. As an example, I've personally contributed multiple bug fixes, performance improvements and documentation changes to sentry's libraries. I don't want to compete with sentry, I want them to maintain my improvements and for other developers to benefit from my work.
