I'm sure it is. For the few people who use it. Once upon a time, it was the dominant versioning system out there. But it was supplanted by git. And it was supplanted for a reason. And network effects didn't protect it from being replaced by git.

- Nextgrid 3y agoIt's unfair to consider network effects when it comes to SVN because it was a very different time on the internet with no major centralized code hosting SaaS like GitHub. Nowadays even companies (that would in the past self-host) rely on SaaS and are thus swayed by network effects of whatever is popular.
