Forks are used by developers to not only “fork an application”, but also just to fork the repo, work on their own branches, and push (PR) them back to the main repo. I have forks of many repos, but that doesn’t mean “i have forked the application under a new name”.
But are they calling them communists as in “state communism” or as in “a commune where everything is shared equally”?
That is the question!
