Is this consensus? Only two versions of Bitcoin? No, this is not consensus. Consensus was the eDonkey network.

Most of the time, the Bitcoin community is ridiculous. Some of us here lived through the birth of the internet, but now many don't even know what a 56K modem is.

Go suck Bitcoin Core's dick, they shit on you and tell you it's white chocolate.

eMule forks:

eMule Plus – direct fork of the original eMule; improved interface and other features, but did not implement Kad or obfuscation.

lMule – first port/fork for Linux (2003).

xMule – fork of lMule (2003), multiplatform; later discontinued.

aMule – fork of xMule (2003), maintained multiplatform development (Linux, macOS, *BSD, Windows).

JMule – Java client derived from the eMule/ed2k base.

easyMule / VeryCD Mod – variant developed by VeryCD (popular in China).

iMule – derived from aMule, oriented towards the I2P network (descendant in the eMule “tree”).

eMule mods: MorphXT, Xtreme, Sivka, ZZUL, ScarAngel, NeoMule, StulleMule, Mephisto.

Clients compatible with the eDonkey network:

eDonkey2000 (MetaMachine, the original).

eMule and its forks (and its family of mods).

MLDonkey (multi-network).

Shareaza (multi-network, with ED2K support).

Lphant (ED2K + BitTorrent).

Morpheus (Windows multi-network client with ED2K support).

Hydranode (modular multi-network).

Pruna (formerly MediaVAMP; based on eMule).

Jubster (multi-network).

eAnt (fork of Lphant).

qMule (based on libed2k + Qt).

iMule (eMule over I2P; note: geared towards I2P/anonymous Kad rather than classic ED2K servers).

NeoLoader (supports eDonkey/eMule and BitTorrent, with its “NeoKad”).
neoloader.com

VeryCD/easyMule and eMule VeryCD Mod (Chinese variants; easyMule v1 used ed2k, later versions limited searches to the VeryCD index).

Didn’t realise eMule had so many forks 😳

Not going to argue this, other than to say that changing the version string isn't diversity. Extracting the consensus kernel out makes deeper independence less risky

Bitcoin: turning regular people into money worshipping degenerates, since 2011 Yay

Nobody cares about emule forks, your money is not depending on it.... Would you run a bitcoin version from some random dude on the internet?

Also, crazy that the eDonkey guy was involved with shitcoins and Mt Gox

I want Libbitcoin to register on there but, I don't know if it will ever work.
