Technically correct but imo not addressing my point:
Even if something gets forked, every time the divide gets deeper and less „social“. The reason why an EEE attempt makes sense is to weaken a competing service with potential. Its enough to weaken it for the devs to eventually lose patience and stuff breaks down.
Because if a million users sees the light and leaves, they have a million instead of the 10 they had before. That is a massive step backwards which took years and years to accomplish.
