   When someone tells you to "Just fork it" it is always a power play from their side. They are saying it because they know that you alone can't do anything about it.

   They know you can't fork it if you're not a coder.

   They know you can't fork it if you only understand front-end stuff.

   They know you can't fork it alone.

   Telling someone you know can't fork it to do it is equivalent to Fuck off, or #ForkOff as some other people said it.

     But what if you're not alone?

     What if so many of us have been told to #ForkOff that we together possess enough knowledge and experiences that we can go forward with this project?

     What if we survey the battlefield (because that's what it felt like today) and see what we can contribute, together?

     No one can #ForkOff alone, but together we may be able to.

     @maloki Am I starting to see #ForkOff because Eugen got pissed at people for hating trending and told them to go build their own Mastodon? Or did something else happen?

     Ironically, I can tell #ForkOff is trending without a trending pane because it's a trend and people are talking about it.
