IMO the application itself is a tour de force of open source. I don't think anyone really wants to fork it. It's the ecosystem around the app that is awful. But yes, there are various projects to 'libre'-ate these portions of the community, though I don't personally have any experience with them. My own personal beef with them comes from when my middle school child wanted to learn some specific piece, and I thought "Oh I can probably get that done through this great OSS project I have been hearing a lot about the past couple of years. I should support them." Dear Reader, I made a terrible mistake.
