But which was more popular with new recruits?

I'm talking about currently living people not some historical figure who tried to blow up government buildings. Political rivals. Irish flags burning, hell even EU flags and Palestinian flags. They're professional hate trolls. It's fairly sad to see but let's call a spade a spade here.

The majority of the nice people of the UK don't follow or even understand them.

I haven't even mentioned their parades.

Ireland has similar groups but they're tiny and mostly ignored.

The Orange Order is a religious hate group who burn effigies of Catholic and Irish "enemies" on two story high bonfires every year. This article glosses over who they really are entirely.
I loved it as a small child. Then my mother got a hold of it and was way better than me. Lost interest after that.

How did you plan to cash out on these "ideas"? They're 10 a penny surely?

Our cat goes crazy for olives. He'll slurp up the juice from a can of olvies if we look the other way.
Every country in the world would have similar incidents then though. With arson or stabbings or whatever weapons are available

Reminds me of a scene in the Wire where they convince the kid that the photocopy machine is a lie detector

Those apps you mentioned are the pinnacle of what open source software can look like for me. Blender was always powerful but when they put effort into redoing the UI it was a complete game changer.
