The temperature of the waters, so to speak. Find out what people wanted, not only by looking at a really old feature request, but maybe sharing it again and being like "Okay, this is on the table for consideration, but we need some more feedback, and look at abuse-vectors etc."

Showing that we wanted to listen. But like.... The result, is that G is back at "I don't care what you say", while pretending that he still wants to be Anti-Abuse.

Just tell us you don't really care, so we can truly fork and move on with development that actually cares about a vulnerable userbase.

Don't vaguely say it, just come out and say it properly. Tell us, so we know what to expect form you.

The Double Speak is troublesome, and it even hurt me personally.

I thought we wanted to be better than Twitter and Facebook, but that's not what I'm seeing here.

@maloki thank you for all the work you have done 🙏🏻🙇🏻‍♀️

@maloki He's basically just a flaming shitheel to anyone who disagrees with him or criticizes him in any way, isn't he?

@KevinCarson1 I'm sorry, but I not going to have that conversation. As when it's framed this way it becomes a bit too inflammatory for my taste.

@maloki OK, sorry.

@walialu That quote wasn't mine.

This project is a community effort.

We are a community having a conversation.

@maloki Yeah, good for you, but currently, it feels like @Gargron is a lot *under fire* and it just doesn't feel right ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@walialu Can you stop tagging him back in?

Him being under fire is his own doing. It happens, and it's a recurring behaviour pattern from his side, unfortunately.

Yes, he's under fire, but it's because when we try to talk calmly and just ask politely he just dismiss us and shut us down, so sometimes we end up needing to get really loud to be heard.
