It's very weird how most answers to a question of the form "what's the difference between thing A and its fork B" tend to be about nearly-irrelevant and subtle technical differences, even though the majority of forks are because of *governance* differences
@joepie91 Are you including the license in "governance"?
@joepie91 In this case, I fully agree.
Nearly all the forks I knows that are still alive 6 month after were created because of the license.

@nico I can think of one that wasn't forked because of the license (but other governance reasons) that is still alive, but I agree that many of them seem to be license forks. Though often that does seem rooted in "some developers wanted to make it a Business and the others did not".
them: An actively developed, community-driven fork of Misskey
them: A friendly fork of Mastodon
them: A Misskey fork with a focus on community needs
them: A fork of Mastodon for creators
me: literally what
