Interesting history and analysis of SMTP's history. How can we prevent fedi and other open protocols from suffering the same fates?

God damn bitcoin >> SSH?? (1999)

That's a pretty steamy take if I've ever heard one

'One of the most successful, widely used, and forked protocols'

SSH is also a protocol, tho I'll admit maybe its 'one of the few' above bitcoin - but I can come up with a page of examples that top it if you need (HTTP, TCP, UDP, RTSP, RGMII...)
