Well it would help decentralize Bitcoin. Don’t you think that we should have more than 1 bitcoin repo?

i think its a bad idea

But since its a fork its less bad

I mean knots is an older version of bitcoin core. Its core that has shifted.

from what I understand its maintained by a single person, whats the review process?

Yes I agree that knots could benefit from more maintainers. That would be awesome if you joined forces.

assuming luke rebases then it makes sense to contribute to core then it would improve both

Yeah but then you are justifying bitcoin core-ruption’s actions which is fine, that’s your choice.

what corruption? what did they do exactly?

They are baking in their mempool polices and eliminating user configuration.

There are like 15 baked in mempool policies, should we have configs for all those?

I’m for maximum choice let them default to whatever they suggest but let the user opt out. Seems like you are steering away from the “core” issue.

I'm all for customization actually:

but arguing over settings isn't the way

But caving into shitcoiners demands is the way?

i don't agree with this framing at all. this is my view:

Agree to disagree

Net result will be

1.More difficult to run a node which leads to-less node runners

2.Less user choice

3.Higher sat/vB over time

There is no clear cohesive benefit for doing this.

Luke must approve!
