This is a Boolberry thread and some of the BBR advantages are mention in the OP.

That being said I think XMR has some advantages too, most importantly is the relatively larger size of their community at the moment.

Boolberry has some technical advantages but a smaller community. Luckily our extremely slow distribution curve will allow others to easily join the community as we grow.  Supernet, our GUI wallet and plans to build a BBR economy will be noticed by a wider audience soon.

Monero has fixed it by banning 0 mixins. A minimum mixin will be enforced

Please read clearly before posting

Not entirely. BBR allows minimum mix factor to be specified by the sender on outputs. But it doesn't require it and there is not really any incentive for the sender to use it (his transaction is already mixed on the input side, so what does the sender much care what the recipient does?). Nor is there any way to require that someone who is sending you coins use it, so you may get coins with no minimum set and the exact same issues as before (in fact the sender can do this deliberately to undermine the recipient's privacy). Finally the sender can impose arbitrary costs on the recipient by setting a high value.

If BBR imposed a minimum or required value on the minimum mix factor on outputs, that would be about the same as what Monero is doing, but that hasn't been done either.

The comment about the minimum not being enforced in Monero yet is correct. We do have a default mix factor in github but not in any build yet.

Supernet update below. Join slack if you want to track things more carefully. This coin offers many new ideas and works well already with a user friendly GUI, mixin improvements and a smaller blockchain for faster synching

It is nice to be hearing more about Boolberry again. The coin had an extremely fair launch and has many nice features. I really feel like it was overlooked

There has not been much marketing focus yet. Just like bitcoin, most early efforts have been focused on technology.

When the time is right, exposure will increase.  Luckily for latecomers, boolberry has one of the most rational emission curves among the major cryptonote coins. There was no massive premine or fastmine of BBR

You are correct. No fastmine or premine. Developer payment was disclosed since the beginning. If Boolberry was just a simple clone, nobody would want to mine it and reward the developer. Luckily many people do recognize the innovation at boolberry and find the developer payment very reasonable

I should note that community development donations for many coins including AEON which you are working on far exceed 1%.

AEON info from your quote:
"Donation fund:

balance: 414176.048419687951, unlocked balance: 414165.931766313195
Previously spent: 19000 (bounties)"

414,176/18,4000,000 = 2.25 %

Your current donations as a percentage of all coins that will ever be mined (excluding your current tail emission proposal) far exceeds that of Boolberry

Most developers will not work for free so funding is important.  As long as everything is transparent (as it is with both Boolberry and Aeon) I see no problems

Announcement!
