Yesterday one of KDE devs posted an article mentioning this sort of phenomenon and linked to an article depicting it in full[1]. And now that you mention Plan 9 it makes me think, because I always dreamt about Plan9 taking over the world and becoming big and everyone using it, but Plan9 is so great because it has never left the 'geek' circle, while others like Linux (and arguably the BSDs, to a lesser extent) already had.

- MisterTea 6y agoIt's all ego stroking and github stars. The psychopaths write code for the sake of building an ego instead of better software. The only people they are helping is themselves. This is why the 9front/cat-v crowd is cantankerous and the humour as dark and cringy as possible. No likes. No stars. No instagram accounts full of pictures some jerk took in the middle of the sahara to show how shallow they are. We only want well thought out code. Otherwise go away.
