If you think this is bad, then you should make sure to use copyleft licenses.
EDIT: Just read the details, and it seems that this is just what they did. SSPL is like AGPL with a stronger SAAS is distribution claus. That might not be valid, according to the OpenSource definition, but unless you are planning to modify the code and provide it as SAAS I think this is no a problem.

This is not as bad as they didn't make the whole thing totally proprietary. But FOSS community definetly would have to seek for alternarives unfortunetly.
-
Or just keep using the FOSS versions. These license changes by definition can not be retroactive.

Sure, but someone has to maintain them.

Sure, but in the meantime until a new fork emerges as the spiritual carry-on, you can just freeze the latest good version on your docker-compose and carry on.
