> all those features.

The forum, chat, and Pikchr features have been added since then. Indeed, everything in the Fossil ChangeLog has been added since then, because it cuts off a few months after your post: https://fossil-scm.org/home/doc/trunk/www/changes.wiki

My criticism, over a decade ago, was that Fossil had too many features that were tangential to version control. Since then, they have added more of those tangential features. So please explain to me how my complaints in 2011 are in any way inconsistent with the state of the project today. If anything, my complaints about feature creep have been vindicated by over a decade of continued feature creep.

In 2011, I wanted the flexibility to use other wiki, ticketing, documentation, and blogging systems. In 2022, I also want the ability to use other forum and chat systems. In 2033, I will probably want the ability to choose my own text editor. I have never complained that Fossil is lacking in features, especially features that are not directly part of version control.
