Threats
It is threatened by habitat loss.
gollark: Skynet has:- very simple publish/subscribe mechanism- actual protocol documentation- good performance- working client codeSPUDNET has:- vastly complicated node.js monolith which fails to scale- client code rewritten repeatedly because it's more complex and needs different environment things- documentation scattered across random Discord channels, some of which doesn't mention important features, plus similarly scattered code samples- 17249182649124 kilofeatures such as private channels, comm mode, the reporting system, HTTP-only mode- better acronym- potatOS
gollark: It's outdated, SPUDNET is better anyway.
gollark: No, I made skynet, for purposes.
