> If someone uses my work to earn any money, then it's commercial.
it really is that simple. It's meant for creative works, but not just; if i make a song and license it CC-NC, you can't use it in a video if that video gets ad revenue, patreon, snail-mail donations.
> Meaning "done for the sake of financial profit" (of art, etc.), "prepared for the market or as an article of trade" is from 1871.
It is trivial, unless you are looking for loopholes to get around licensing.
