Today I learned that Core is a "decentralized" group of devs, that have no contact or affiliation with anyone, I guess no one knows who they are and they probably live in some cave and have no access to the outside world. Maybe the are just AI bots with a random rotation of permissions. I guess we don't need to build trustless tech we just need a decentralized group of devs on a repo.

LOL Core is a decentralized group of developers that have no affiliation or contact with Citrea and these ridiculous conspiracy theories type of FUD helps nobody.

Core is the most transparent software dev group in the history of FOSS so if you can't figure out that there are literally 100s of contributors from their open github then I don't know what to tell you except for learn how to read.
It's not a "conspiracy theory" if a Core dev (Antoine) and Citrea investor (Lopp) are the ones telling us that.
A "decentralized group of developers", yes that makes me LOL.
Vortex, needs to go back to 2017 when he was relevant
having 100s of contributes proves its FOSS, that is different from decentralized in what gets merged and assuming that project owners don't talk between themselves or that have no control or decision on what gets merged is naive.
Once again Core is one of the most transparent FOSS projects on the planet so you don't have to take my word for it. If you don't agree with this then that's your problem.
I never said it's not FOSS or transparent. You said it's "decentralized" it's not, maybe it was a bad choice of wording for what you actually mean. Linux Kernel is FOSS and has thousands of contributions and it's transparent, maybe it's also decentralized even though only Linus gets to decide what gets merged, maybe not since it's just one guy, maybe 6 like Core makes it decentralized.
That's better, you left out "decentralized", since it's not.
It's a problem for anyone not wanting to allow arbitrary data as a valid use case.
The correction for that is underway though.
It's not just 6, the maintainers DO NOT control the project just like in any other FOSS project and are elected by the rest of the Core team based on their actual work. Learn this.
Satoshi himself created op return, learn your history cause right now you have no idea what you're talking about.
But hey have fun forking yourself off the network.
There is no "project owner" because a maintainer is about as far from an "owner" as you can get, at least learn how FOSS works before making such an ass out of yourself.
