going out on a limb here, but i _think_ there is already a really popular project named darwin, maybe for, like, SEO or something, a different name?

There's quite a few Darwin projects. Including the MacOS kernel. Yeah, the naming is not amazing.

Survival of the fittest "Darwin" project?

Let's say n developers create their own fork of a Darwin app and build features that the community deem equally important. How does the "default/selected version" as described in the document work? Somehow implement a merge capability?

Maybe they should switch to "Alfred" or "Wallace". e.g., https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfred_Russel_Wallace

Only if they all were competing in the same market. Since they aren't, I like to think of it more as them competing for which one becomes the base meme. When people think of "dog" which variant do they imagine? Lab, husky, french bulldog, or something else? Which dog type "won" and created the strongest meme?

Alfred is a quite well-known macOS app (alfredapp.com)

I'm not sure web3 is going to be adopted more than it already has, so I wonder about the longevity of projects like this.
