@alice yes I think the way he presented it was 'less than optimal' to put it mildly,though the general tone of the discussion (at least the part I saw) was heated and emotional, and usually nuance is the first victim in this climate.I truly understand your position; I also see the value in what they are trying to do. What becomes of the fediverse will be the result of the collective choice of its users, I just wanted to raise that it's not as black and white as partly depicted in the discussion.
