It's clear now XT is destiend to disappear and the fork will not happen, thank god. It's also clear tho that alot of people want a bigger blocksize, but not arbitrary increases of the blocksize which all it does is exposing the network to all kind of attacks and things we don't even know because we would be in unknown territory. Yes for blocksize increase and yes for scaling up Bitcoin globally to beat VISA etc, but do it with common sense.

This was what we saw at the start of the thread.

Unfortunately, I am now not so sure now that Coinbase is trying to manipulate the entire community and centralise the decision making for their own benefit. It does not help that /r/bitcoin has descended into circlejerking against theymos and in the process started circlejerking Coinbase and BIP101 to try and get a 1-up over theymos.
Are you a caring honeybadger?
