@thisismissem@hachyderm.io @dansup@mastodon.social @deadsuperhero@social.wedistribute.org all those words are great, and I align with many of them, but I still haven't seen anyone offer a PR for any of his projects.

Honestly, and I'm sorry to say, this is a step up or shut up situation.

"He created too much too quickly" really isn't aligned with any of the values many of us hold in the hopes of growth of the fediverse.

@chad@mstdn.ca @dansup@mastodon.social @deadsuperhero@social.wedistribute.org he literally chased away all the people who wanted to contribute, like seriously, no other fedi dev had had a letter like this written: https://dansup-open-letter.github.io

Ask dan about how he works sometimes, because last I knew he tended to have thousands of untracked files where he was doing too many changes at once, but not finishing any of them or working in branches such that he could cleanly switch tasks β€” that's what leads to those massive "do all the things" merges.

If he hadn't chased others away from his projects it'd be a different matter.

@thisismissem@hachyderm.io @dansup@mastodon.social @deadsuperhero@social.wedistribute.org this conversation has progressed to the point where I think Dan is owed an opportunity to weigh in.
