@dansup what the Internet does not need is more “leaders”. Today’s leader become tomorrow’s dictator. Far better to think in terms of facilitators - ie. people who help things happen, not seeking power or ownership.
Like Tim Berners Lee https://www.ecosia.org/search?q=inventor+of+the+Internet&tts=st_asaf_iphone
@peterbrown I disagree, when I said leader, I obviously meant ethical and forward thinking leaders or builders.
They are the same, you have to make a path before you can expect others to walk it.
When it comes to open source projects like these, dictators have no power, anyone can fork and the people can decide which path they take.
And we should embrace this, otherwise we'd be stuck on Internet Explorer v20 unless that kid announced his new hobby project called linux back in the early 90s 😉
