I see that this issue has been raised 7 years ago but I thought I'd see whether anything has changed since then. In particular, python now has the two libraries Rich and Textual that have improved (or soon will improve) python CLI and TUI applications. Being able to have some graphics drawing functionality would be a great addition but both libraries are licenced under the MIT licence, so using drawille would require all applications using it to be released under the AGPL.

Is there any appetite for changing the licence to something more permissive (not necessarily MIT but maybe LGPL?)

Just as a point of interest, it seems like it's a 50/50 split between MIT or AGPL for the other implementations/similar projects mentioned in the README.
