It’s a worst version of Core by all metrics and ways to measure in terms of open source practices. Not saying it cannot change but today it’s the case.
It’s an accumulation of patches mostly reviewed and merge by a single guy.
I think there is value in client diversity, but should be done in a better way. And maybe it was a chicken and eggs problem and the reason that Knots is in this situation was because not sufficient demand. Let’s see if things change with the growing demand.
