    I disagree, forks can be made but in reality nobody cares, 99.999% still follow the ‘main’ repo. Sometimes shit like that happens (looking at you, Buterik!), but that kinda misses the point that the validation is not implemented optimally.

      I hope you are aware that you went from “this can’t be broken” to “I trust that people wouldn’t break it” to “sometimes they do break it but it’s not that often” in a very short comment.

        No, the nuance is in the number of people who confirm the change, they must be 50% +1.

          So if 50%+1 of people decide that they don’t want to pay artists they can just stop doing that. Sounds iron clad to me.

            That’s simply the way real decentralization works, I’m afraid.
