you can't just fork and maintain the community or recognition though which is way more important for DevOps, or packaging tools in general. It's more valuable for us all to use the same/similar tools. The world doesn't need 50 digital Ocean adapters.

I’ve never had that situation in Pulumi yet.

It’s just a matter of getting everyone else on the bandwagon. As long as everyone in our team uses the same it works fine.
