From Competing with Apple and Google - A Weekend Discussion
Excerpt:
Create a large scale open-source project and back it behind an organisation/company similar to the AOSP, Ubuntu or Sourcehut business model. Initially start as a project for other devices to reduce cost and achieve funds, and eventually work with an OEM to manufacture a hardware device for that with said funds.

Yes, @felipe chatted with me and @cryotosensei a bit.
It does kind of bum me out seeing all these early stackers who aren't active anymore.

Yes, I wonder if early stackers left because there wasn't much going on at the time and they lost interest. It would be great if some early stackers who aren't active anymore came back now to see their reaction to how the site and community has grown and changed.

Maybe so. I do remember there being quite a bit of pushback against territories. You may have driven some of them away when you emerged victorious in that battle.

Yes, I recall there were some who did not approve of the SN fork.

SN had a fork!!
Soft or hard?

Hard fork. Big subbers won.

30 sats \ 1 reply \ @Undisciplined OP 18 Jun
Was it a hard fork? I think a lot of the opponents just muted all the new content and carried on like nothing ever happened.
I guess it's still a hard fork, but they're pretending like it wasn't.

It was only about a year ago that zaps started getting a lot bigger. I remember several discussions about it when I was fairly new to SN.

That's a bit defeatist. I'm sure someone could still do that, if they really made them count.
It might be a fun challenge.

I agree with @EnormousPony's top comment. Is there an even greater risk after two years?

I have loved reading these posts the last few days! It is amazing to see what was talked about and popular a few years ago and compare it to what is going on now!

It's really interesting. A year ago, people were still asking if it was ok to talk about stuff other than Bitcoin.

That is pretty wild! I have only been around a few months and I love that while I can get great Bitcoin insight and news here that there is another side that also is thriving that does not deal with BTC at all and shares pictures of their animals!
