This guy is damned good. I sponsored him on Github because his software is dope. I also like how when some controversy erupted on the project he just ejected the controversial people and moved on. Good stewardship. Great code.

I recall something like when he first ported it and it worked on my M1 Max he hadn't even yet tested it on Apple Silicon since he didn't have the hardware.

Honestly, with this and whisper, I am a huge fan. Good luck to him and the new company.

Do you have more info on the controversy? I'm not sure ejecting developers just because of controversy is honestly good stewardship.

Right. More details needed to know if this is good stewardship (ejecting two toxic individuals) or laziness (ejecting a villain and a hero to get rid of the "problem" easily). TikTok was using this method for a while by ejecting both bullies and victims, and it "solved" the problem but most people see the injustice there.

I'm not saying it was bad stewardship, I honestly don't know. I just agree that we shouldn't make a judgment without more information.

>justice

For an individual running a small open source project, there's time enough for coding or detailed justice, but not both. When two parties start pointing fingers and raising hell and its not immediately clear who is in the right, ban both and let them fork it.
