yes to some degree.

look at snort social and iris merger as an example.

but competition is healthy and devs often dont agree and especially in visual want creative power.

a better solution is more devs and contributions in general. get active on github curating issues, add to existing any personal insights, find and cross reference duplicates, update documentation (text, screenshots, translations).

if people spent 20 minutes a day doing the above (and learning how is doing), wed make far more progress then rehashing in nests and notes.
