I mean this does seem kind of fair. I’m not familiar with Confluence and Atlassian but it seems something mostly aimed at corporations

He should just use AGPL then.

That’s substantially more restrictive than “Apache but you can’t sell it through this specific channel”, and it wouldn’t help this particular problem.

It’s not that the knock off extensions don’t want to share their code (they probably do).

Atlassian could sell extensions, though, they would just need to comply with the AGPL. The AGPL means that the entire platform must comply with the AGPL, so proprietary platforms couldn't use it but in a fair "applies to everyone the same" and not "we don't like you individually" kind of way.

It's a client-side app, AGPL doesn't work here.
