Redis recently became "source-available" and most people probably don't know the difference between "source-available" and "open-source" because they sound like the same thing. After all, the source code of "source-available" software is open to public view, so it's literally "open (to public view) source (code)."
The term "free" is sadly confusing as well, since English is dumb, but at least it's associated with freedom. So, instead of using "open source" and trying to make sure people know that it's meant to be more than just open, I'd rather use "free software" and try to make sure people know that it's meant as in freedom.
