This has already been done to death, and I don't know who you think you're trying to "explain" this too. Nobody on this forum has attempted to "hide" the fact that QB64 Phoenix Edition is a new and separate thing, in fact this literal thread acknowledges that QB64 Phoenix Edition is a fork. Additionally, nobody has been pretending that qb64.com or QB64 Official don't exist, and we have no problem with anybody talking about them or using them (or any other basics for that matter, several projects on this forum were written in other basic languages). We're also not going into their discord or forums or GitHub or etc. and telling people to use Phoenix Edition instead, people can use what they want to.
You're trying to create drama when everybody working on Phoenix Edition has already well moved on, and frankly as far as the project goes are moving on just fine. If you or anybody else wants to use QB64 Official or make something new/different then you should feel free to do so, we're not trying to "compete" with them.
Additionally, if you would like to help or give us useful feedback on improvements, we would welcome that as we have from many people already. Complaining that 'we're doing everything wrong' or 'you should rewrite the whole thing' while being angry about everything is not useful feedback.
To get back to the _actual_ topic of this post, thinking about it more I actually like QB64PE
But it sounds like I might be out numbered.
