Just look at the new star of GitHub, OpenClaw. OpenClaw is maintained in a completely different way from what we, the old guard of open source, are used to — because the maintainer no longer even reviews all the code themselves. The agents do. So people running different configurations of agents have been able to fork OpenClaw into a "new Claw," a "safe Claw," whatever Claw — and then, with their own aesthetic, merge in all those community contributions that the OpenClaw maintainer, Peter, had rejected, without paying the maintainer's tax. This dynamic simply didn't happen with Linux, or React, or the older open-source projects. It's only possible now that we can simulate the overlapping of waveforms.
