This is literally the old Microsoft playbook for destroying open source software. “Embrace, extend, extinguish”. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halloween_documents They did it with XMPP and Windows live messenger in the 2000s. At the end of the day these companies have no incentive to be responsible stewards of open protocols. The moment they have a tough quarter they’ll eviscerate it if it means they’ll make a buck. |

I’m happy IRC is still around in spite of that.
