Context: Sonny Piers was banned a while ago with nothing much being said to the community.Turns out, Sonny knew that the GNOME foundation wasn't paying it's contractors, and he threatened to go public with the info, accidentally lost his temper while talking about it, somebody snitched, and the CoCC got him banned. They also tried to make him sign a gag order, and threatened to write a defamatory article against Sonny. All of this over a shitty Linux Desktop environment.
can't beat the CoCC
>>109017960Usecase for paying contractors?
>>109017960>somebody snitchedApparently the guy who "snitched" was also part of the CoCC himself (so basically he got butthurt and abused his power). Australiaman talks about it in his latest video.>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=36pHSM0mzXE
>>109017960From my extensive experience, foss devs are the worst prima donnas.

You know you fucked up hard when even redditors are universally shitting on you.tldr: gnome mod banned the topic on r/gnome and users on r/linux (incluing one mod) are shitting on xim
I'm not reading all that.
>>109017960Can you pastebin this so I can feed it into gemini i just cant be fucking bothered to read any of that

Is there really no discussion about this outside of https://old.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/1u1gj4s/sonny_piers_elaborates_on_his_ban_from_the_gnome/ ?The other subreddits don’t have a thread.The other linux forums don’t have a thread.It’s really creepy.
>>109020757>The other subreddits don’t have a thread.See >>109020624r/gnome's mods deleted every thread about it because the topic was becoming "too heated" and they were "too exhausted" to moderate the subreddit.
>>109020763>"too exhausted" to moderate the subredditIsn't that why we pay the jannies those big bucks??
>>109020757I think the scandal is pretty bad. Usually they let the threads be, and just have a bunch of shills making retarded comments defending gnome/red hat/wayland/etc. with a lot of upvotes. They didn’t even allow a discussion on HN for this one.
>>109020624Wow, as they say: Even a broken clock...
>>109020763>too exhausted to modSo why the fuck are they mods in the first place, then?
has gnome done anything positive the last 2 decades?
>>109020897No.Wait, lemme see: Did gnome-disks get any updates in that period? If so, then yeah: gnome-disks.
>>109020624>I know it was controversial>I did it anyways>I'm not changing anything>you are still free to discuss it... somewhere else>I am not taking questionsEveryone involved with GNOME acts exactly the same
>glownigger grifter org does shady shitsurprise?
>>109017960Don't worry, the professional shaman rebalanced their chakras. That's a bigger payout than any material offering.
This is depressing. I generally prefer the softwares gnome people produced, compared to the ones by KDE.
>>109021652KDE e.V doesn't have these issues though. Interesting that.It's no wonder Valve decided to work with them instead of GNOME.
>>109020897Pretty much the only worthwhile contribution is the stuff they occasionally do for Network manager and other projects that are important for desktops besides GNOME.
The GNOME CoC is fine with someone raping children, but isn't fine with someone saying that there are unpaid bills.
>>109021725Now about that ballroom…
>>109020819That's fucked up. The gnome people have the power to remove or stop threads on hackernews too? How?
>>109021889HN is literally run by a venture capital firm. Try to shittalk RedHat there and see how it goes.Additionally, actually looking into finances is very uncomfortable if your mode of operation is "we don't need to make a profit".Two independent reasons why they would want to shut this down.
>>109021725I'm sorry anon but are being MAPphobic right now? It's pride month you bigot!Plus what you're calling """rape""" is actually a sexual discovery ritual.
who wants to start a nonprofit with me? well give ourselves makework jobs an solicit donations for our "cause" (removing features from existing software)

>>109020929funniest part is he isn't even directly involved with GNOME, he's just the reddit modseems to foster a certain type of community
