Here is the root of the problem with core devs and their supporters.

lmao no
For now.
Anyone can fork Bitcoin core.
In an extremely technical sense maybe, but wrong on many other levels.
Probably not for long
It's 80% bitcoin and falling. One can only hope for Bitcoins sake it vanishes where it belongs to together with its devs.
GFY
You do not change Bitcoin, Bitcoin changes you.
People will use whichever fork of Bitcoin suits their needs. The current main branch might not be around forever, but the project goes on...
jb55 ≠ Bitcoin guru. You're the IT janitor, not the landlord.

It's not, according to Bitcoin Core:
> Bitcoin is a network that is defined by its users, who have ultimate freedom in choosing what software they use (fully-validating or not) and implementing whatever policies they desire. Bitcoin Core contributors are not in a position to mandate what those are. One way this is reflected is by our long-running practice of avoiding auto-updating in the software. This means that no entity can unilaterally push out changes to Bitcoin Core users: changes must be made by users choosing to adopt new software releases themselves, or if they so desire, different software. Being free to run any software is the network’s primary safeguard against coercion.

As an argument entropies, refuse to engage. Both sides fall victim while the world watches.

Bitcoin is a protocol, Core is a reference implementation.
Fauci: I am the science.
Core: bitcoin is bitcoin core.
The same circus in a different tent for the same brain-dead cultists.

Small dick energy
Bitcoin is what the majority decides
Can someone tell me why increasing op_return size limit is a good thing? How does it make bitcoin better as a monetary network? Does it make lightning, Ark, or ecash way better?
They are censoring my right to censor. I'll stop using core.
De jure, no. But de facto...sadly, yes--unless more nodes run knots.
bitcoin is what the node runners say it is.
... and a good number of them seem to disagree with you.
... not enough to fork
... yet.
No.
It's my understending that Luke takes the latest release of core and then 'undoes' some of their tweaks, but I could be wrong
Factually inaccurate.
Bitcoin node software is mostly Bitcoin Core, but soon 20% will be Knots.
how about you volunteer for this kind of one client one protocol maximalism by quitting with damus and notedeck then?
primal is enough. primal is good. everyone loves primal.
