I'm pretty stressed out about the proliferation of standards here. It's indistinct to me why we need so many ways of hearing about a new thing; they seem the same general idea, but everyone has some insular notion, it feels like, and I don't get the value add, don't get why we'd have another. We already have a streams API that tells us of new things. Adding observables, adding signals, feels like a lot of totally different ideas that do mostly the same thing. What is missing from streams to make it cover these other cases? I suspect not a lot. But these are isolated cultures each possessed of their own idea, their own mentality, and there's not much binding glue forces to pull these disparate worlds together, even though it feels like the overlap is overwhelming. I feel like we are making a huge mistake letting these people chip more shit into the language, that we gain only more modes that don't work with each other. I love these communities, but not like this.
