Initially I thought this was some kind of mechanical regenerative braking. I wonder if that's been attempted before. Applying the brakes would wind a spring and bring the bike to a stop. Then applying force to the pedals or manually

I would say the availability of publically hosted bridges, use by large FOSS orgs like Mozilla and Drupal, and an all-in-one spec which is not fragmented into separate specification extensions are some differentiators.

by Evidlo 6y ago
That's the main differentiator?

But the content is still available isn't it: https://code.google.com/archive/ When people try to self-host and get lazy or hit by a bus, the content just disappears unless it was lucky enough to get archived.
