There are many forks for that, not a problem.

But forks prevent that, right?

Forking works fine.

k__ | karma 14385 | avg karma 1.6 · | 2020-06-01 13:33:56+00:00

Also, there may very well be forks already that are used by many people that allow to do what they want.

empath75 | karma 15699 | avg karma 2.9 · | 2019-06-17 16:42:46

There have been multiple forks.

jawngee | karma 5719 | avg karma 4.79 · | 2020-12-07 13:44:08+00:00

There are well maintained forks.

Forking is hardly easier

adamc | karma 3255 | avg karma 2.79 · | 2015-08-11 12:23:07+00:00

I don't see what would prevent folks from switching to a fork if that happened.

What is wrong with having many forks? Just ignore the ones you don't care about.

preparat | karma 73 | avg karma 9.12 · | 2017-10-31 20:11:53+00:00

Wonder how they would deal with forks, if it's an issue at all.

awt | karma 888 | avg karma 1.57 · | 2008-12-04 23:11:58+00:00

Yes, the more forks the merrier. Just make sure the good ones filter to the top somehow.

eric_cc | karma 685 | avg karma 1.34 · | 2023-08-28 12:55:15

Absolutely not. Forks are extremely important. Where did you come up with that idea?

ggruschow | karma 837 | avg karma 3.21 · | 2008-11-05 08:19:30

fork(2) will do though.

nimbusvid | karma 11 | avg karma 0.92 · | 2014-09-06 23:29:56

There are now several forks with different features.

hughesjj | karma 1575 | avg karma 2.4 · | 2024-03-26 17:16:06

Yup, and forks don't have to be permanent.

Imo be ready to fork all the things if need be. Get comfortable with it before you're forced to.

sergeykish | karma 1098 | avg karma 1.26 · | 2020-12-04 18:53:53

It works, I assume there would be forks if needed.

rnd0 | karma 949 | avg karma 1.49 · | 2022-12-24 16:15:37

There's like two or three forks out there. I'm not sure how active any of them are though.

mseepgood | karma 3572 | avg karma 3.25 · | 2014-10-19 12:41:33+00:00

The fork could maintain these.

_madmax_ | karma 114 | avg karma 1.87 · | 2024-05-01 12:42:09

With 1.5k forks I'm not exactly worried. But thank you for pressing a button.

aaronblohowiak | karma 7361 | avg karma 2.49 · | 2010-12-13 05:53:53

Which fork?
