Everyone said this about Twitter… now everyone is saying it about Damus and Amethyst. We shall see. 🧿 It’s easy to forget that it’s only been a few months.

That is very true. Althought Damus and Amethyst are technically not forks of Twitter, they only have very similar UI. Forking a project to tweak a few parameters and expecting everyone else to follow is much more unprobable than getting a chunk of Twitter users to switch to your app with a fundamentally different approach to social media at the core.
I guess relays could share with others if you updated your tree, so it could be similar.
The time it takes to turn your OS into a tree is far too long though lol… maybe in the future when consumer hardware is faster, then it may likely be possible.
Whoops I replied to the wrong post here lol…
True, forking Amythest may not yield much fruit… but a new multiplatform client may. 🍇
