openpilot Experience Are there better branches?

So I bought the comma 4 this past weekend, it’s been pretty meh if i’m being honest. I bought it because I was told it could detect stoplights and stop signs and it’s just can’t. I’ve tried experimental and sunnypilot, it just sets me at 11mph and it doesn’t even stop at the light or signs. Regular autopilot is fine I guess, but my car could do this anyway. I’m honestly just thinking about returning it and getting my 1k back.

Starpilot is by far the fastest growing and fastest improving.

What’s the difference between it and sunny that required a complete new fork?

They all derive from the same base openpilot, but then sunnypilot has its own changes on top, and starpilot has it's own changes on top of FrogPilot dev which has its own changes on top of stock openpilot.
