Are you considering running a Bitcoin Knots node? It's certainly your right to do so.

But you should be informed of what you're getting into.

I don't like the idea of a fork .. if you want to deliver a small specific feature which you believe is good ..why not just create an add on ?

Fork is about ideology .. it is NOT a feature debate !

I never knew fork is about ideology until I see your post 😃

You can start a distribution with specific features .. Linux has thousands of distros to change the taste and flavor or meet certain features .. all are welcome ..

But if you fork the Kernel .. .. it is suddenly a new system .. splits are very hard to maintain in a large eco system .. eventually, the question boils down to " kill or be killed " .. besides it leaves the entire community torn ..

Fork may be fine where tech is going to change say 90 percent and older project is just not being maintained ..or you are launching a totally new project / protocol . ..
