All PCs use electricity, wanna guess how old that is? /s

But seriously, I think there's several much older standards still in use on modern PCs, like ATX, the PCI bus, 8250/16550 UART, the x86 instruction set, BIOS etc.

I looked it up and didn’t find any straightforward solutions.

There aren't any to my knowledge.

All 3 OS's would have to expose some kind of facility that makes this straightforward. But not even FUSE is easily usable across all the platforms.

I wondered how many hot takes there would be... was not disappointed.

thanks, apparently my DarkReader extension was obscuring the github logo in the corner... they should probably make it a bit more obvious somewhere that it's FOSS.

No mention of open source, or a license, that I could easily see.

OTF also funded Signal... I wonder why they left that one out.

Many of the larger Sony sensors for example. I can recall the IMX250 I think it was, from 10 years ago, had something like 48 LVDS pairs.

Can you name any private trackers that actually have a need for federation?

The biggest issue I personally have with BT (v1) is not being able to search for a file by its checksum. I think v2 can do this, but almost nobody uses it in my experience.

Big camera sensors use dozens of LVDS lanes without issue, and have you seen PCI express?

"Only my opinions are valid and there can be no other use-cases!"

But seriously... this is the reason there are multiple standards, I think it's quite obvious the situation is more complex than you think. If it was universally so easy and so much better, we'd all already be using it, but of course we are not.
