You library is awesome, it solved all my problems, and I will never be able to use it due to your license choice.

I appreciate it's your code, and you can do what you like with it, but doesn't it seem a waste that another project doing exactly the same thing will need to be created and maintained by someone, just to remove the license restriction that AGPL imposes? If I include your library in my larger web application, releasing all the source code to our competitors is simply not going to fly.

To avoid wasting other people's time spent integrating this, please include a large warning at the top of the readme, indicating it's basically not suitable for most commercial use. If you want to be super-helpful, pointing us to competing projects with different licenses would be rather nice.

It's such a shame, as it works really well.
