So many of these comments just feel like bikeshedding.

By most arguments here basecamp is an awful name for a company and hey is a terrible name for an email application - it doesn't seem to be holding them back though.

For those not familiar with bikeshedding please see: http://bikeshed.com/

The bikeshedding is incredibly infuriating.

Probably the main problem with adoption of decentralized services is the overwhelming entitlement users feel to have everything delivered to them by megacorps.

Stop doing this!!! Stop being a whiny brat and think deeply about the trade-offs between centralized services and not having everything perfect right out of the gate. It's maddening.
