The fact that r/Bitcoin had to resort to censorship to stop the rank and file from switching to BitcoinXT is one indication that the majority wanted a hard fork.
Industry wanted one as well, considering the industry letter signed by most major industry actors, like Coinbase. [1]
And the vast majority of miners signaled support for a hard fork to raise the block size limit.
As for Bitcoin Cash, that was created long after the author of that article penned the article, so could not possibly have created a conflict of interest when he was writing it.
>>The larger ecosystem has largely abandoned it since it compromises on the values of decentralization, defeating the theoretical purpose of using blockchains in the first place.
Bitcoin Cash didn't have any network effects. Crypto users adopt the network with the largest user base and most liquidity. That's why a hard fork that is only supported by an economic minority is always facing an uphill battle in superseding the original fork.
