"Source First License 1.1" is an interesting choice. Sounds like something specific to this developer (so far, at least). I'm not savvy enough to be sure, but it doesn't sound compatible with any of the commonly accepted-as-FOSS licenses.

Correct, it violates the four essential freedoms by placing restrictions on commercial use amongst other things.
