       | How is using the AGPL in this situation different from just using
       | the GPL in terms of how it affects software that uses it? Does
       | any public facing web application that uses this library need to
       | be released under the AGPL?

       | I made a python library/framework for processing images and

       | 
       | Here are some examples made from the command line.

       | Some of the functions use pyo3 to bind to a faster rust backend.

         | Could you clarify?, it is pierogies or pyrogis?

       | What an unfortunate name, pierogi is already plural.

         | English.
