Many new accounts here are defending monero for some reason.

I'm surprised by the trolls creating new accounts trying to FUD this. Why are you so obsessed?

I'm defending Monero because I use it almost every day and have for the past few years.

At last we are seeing a fork that actually moves the needle with regards to improving the forked coin.

You really think so? I think it's just a way for the 'developers' to make a quick buck. Monero has an excellent group of developers and researchers, and the MoneroV developers currently have nothing to show for themselves.

What do you all think of this?
This is the linked article in the post - https://medium.com/@tweetingpauls/beware-of-non-native-forks-of-monero-6f5a0bf1fccf

As long as you move your XMR to a new wallet AFTER the fork, but BEFORE you claim, your XMR is perfectly safe.

This is the first thing you learn about when claiming forks. If you don't know this simple fact, you shouldn't be claiming any fork of any coin.

Your XMR will be safe, but it can hurt your privacy. There's a patch prepared for Monero which fixes things though.

What drawbacks? Drawbacks from whose perspective? Monero is a perfect coin, project.

I don't think that Monero is perfect (yet). Scaling is a real issue because of the transaction sizes, bulletproofs will help things but it'll still be behind Bitcoin and most other coins.

both Monero and their devs are overrated and even a fork couldnt fix that coin.
