> I should point out, it seems daft to me when others suggest using forks with no well-established governance of their own, essentially shifting trust from an organisation at least answerable to certain regulations, to individuals with no proper framework or guidelines
Individuals that care about these things have a far better track record than any business with employees, bills to pay, and investors.
Until that individual tires of the work, and then stops working on it completely or sells it to someone with less scruples or the project gets hijacked by malicious actor.
Aren’t the latter two more or less what happened to Firefox?
I think it's pretty much what happens to every thing
