I support blocksize increasing idea, but not in a form of fork such as XT, which besides block size has some shady unannounced privacy affecting features such as Tor blacklisting.
IMO, everything must be done inside Core client.
A fork is needed either way.
It's not TOR blacklisting but it's against ddos through TOR.
It's not even unannounced
https://github.com/bitcoinxt/bitcoinxt/pull/20Bitcoin XT is an implementation based on Bitcoin Core. They are pretty much identical. It's open source and not a closed club like blockstream.
