white dudes who conveniently can't understand why anyone would dislike gargron
😡
@zeezeemoomoo The only things I know about Gargron:
a) Created Mastodon.
b) Refused to amend the bot tag so that it didn't warn that the user wasn't a person despite the protests of robot-kin and transhumanists. (Which is a pretty good reason to dislike him in my view, TBH)
If there's other reasons, I dunno them.
@zeezeemoomoo All fairly yikes.
@Nezumi sorry for dumping a bit of rant onto you there, it gets me kindariled up
@Nezumi
well hes a cishet white dude in charge of a project that has loadsof vulnerable people in it. He regularly dismisses any contributions to mastodon that aren't straight up coding and not only did he joke about harassment, but he did literally nothing while his followers dogpiled me
