It doesn't have the network effect.
Folks seem to fail to realize that open source project fail when it comes to collaboration products, not because the tech is worse (many times the open source tech might be better), they fail because of the lack of network effects they have achieved.
This is why Slack/FB/Github flourish, while open source alternatives don't.

- alberth 4y agoI'm saying the opposite. I'm saying that Github has flourished because of it's network effect vs alternatives.
