fair enough, i take it.

unfortunately open source is unthankful and if you work on something novel and different its even harder, so if anyone secures funding by compromising and then using that to spread different marketing it can be very frustrating.

the thread started woth the post of the dat ecosystem website.

...since then it was declared dead by some. then at proto was framed as some sort of "successor. then iroh used the opportunity to plug their project.

all of them with their own marketing budget and funding, so this makes it really tough for very passionate and personally invested open source community with no VC funding

so fai enough, a calmer answer would read nicer, but its not always easy.

...if you are interested in more particular issues i can of course elaborate and provide more details - technically or otherwise.

cheers
