and we need to keep an eye and scrutinise and critique their work instead of brush it under the carpet pretending its decentralised to then become complacent
(rhetorical question)
Who's "we"? You and I, who disagree on a fundamental level on what's Bitcoin? Or you and whoever agrees with you? Or the majority of the people in Bitcoin?
If you're not a coder or a contributor, then, no offense, but STFU. This is not a communist nor a democratic system. It's a zero-trust system. If you don't like coding, contributing or discussing in mailing lists, then you hold no influence in the space. You can "critique" their work all you like, but they're not working for you. They're working on whatever they find right, and ignore the noise.
Accept the facts, and move on with your life.
^ the lemming speaks about his overlords power how they do not work for anyone but themselves and their self interests.
when the devs ignore bitcoiners concerns and those critiquing them then that is where the power play evolves into communism
you telling people to stop critiquing devs is a show that you want centralised power..
every insult you sling and command you make against others says more about you then it does about anyone
you know full and well the moderation control the centralised powerhouse has.. and to become a valid contributer is not a open door policy, its actually a kiss the ring and be malleable to follow the path of the moderated roadmap, else have your contributions 'Nacked'/not merged, your comments removed and your ability to participate on a area of the development platform banned.. but you love it so you dont care.
