- jfaucett 9y agoYea I phrased it oddly, but you basically answered it. Thanks for the great product though. > But more than any one individual it is more a collaboration between 1900 contributors On this line, as someone who has participated in building companies, software (some open some closed) for many years now, my hope is that one day we will get to a state in our societies so that the majority of companies can be decentralized, collectively owned, collaborative undertakings, where everyone is a shareholder. I think we took a big step in this direction with the emergence of open source collaborative projects and the decentralized planning that comes with it, and the invention of smart contracts, the blockchain, and cryptocurrencies, but we still have a long ways to go, especially on the legal bureaucratic and risks end of things.
