Comment on Open source email pioneer Roundcube joins the Nextcloud family
sucius1@lemdro.id 11 months agoBeing open source means exactly that, anyone can fork it and continue development if need be. I really don’t understand what you’re trying to say

Maybe he was talking about capacity to develop further or fix bugs. In theory a community can do that (and actually do in many instances) but sometimes development of a community fork tagnates due to the lack of resources.
Best example to disprove this theory is … Nextcloud. Owncloud went ahead and developed a new version in go to scale more easily but next cloud is the defacto standard for most people that were using own cloud before the fork.
