An overwhelming majority of the community favors the 20MB fork. Only a handful of Luddites with their sock puppets accounts for 90% of the opposition (if you can even call it that).
I'm going to have to place the 1MB'er in the same bin as the Moon landing denier, Holocaust denier, and 9/11 conspiracy theorists...
and dont forget for what they are fighting: a decentralized, trustable bitcoin. this is something we all want. we just dont (yet?) have a consensus how to archive this in the best possible way.
Decentralized nodes at the cost of centralization of end-users transacting in the blockchain is not a decentralized trustable bitcoin. What exactly are these Luddites fighting for? The end of Bitcoin?
Nodes that can be ran by the poor, *but only serve the rich*, is not healthy for Bitcoin given the existence of alternative solutions that are cheaper and more efficient.
It's almost like these 1MB'er wants Bitcoin to die on purpose. Madness.
