Interesting history and analysis of SMTP's history. How can we prevent fedi and other open protocols from suffering the same fates?

No, see — if I dont like it I don't need to fork it. I can just leave it and all its forks the hell alone. I'd do the same for national currencies if I could, cryptocurrencies are just the same bullshit without the regulatory checks and balances.

TL;DR — I see what you're selling and I'm not buying it.
