If you are looking for then the only one license that doesn’t have issues is 0BSD:

  • It’s used by Google for Android part (Toybox) while the WTFPL is blocked.
  • The BSD licenses are well known for corporate lawyers and they’ll be fine with it.
  • It doesn’t mention the problematic Public Domain but it’s effectively it’s equivalent.
  • It’s popular and used even more often WTFPL.
  • It’s very short and doesn’t have many versions.
  • It’s old and used since 2006

Just use the one the same license to avoid fragmentation and confusing.
