There are a few weird guys in there that I wasn’t already aware of. I knew that Louis Rossmann was kind of an asshole, but being openly active on kiwifarms is actually fucked up.

    Damn I did not know about Geerling, kinda a bummer, but in the way that I’m not surprised

    Somehow I thought DeVault would’ve had the self reflexive humour to add himself to the list as well. Between his impulsive outbursts and lolicon allegations (from people he had impulsive outbursts at), and with tongue firmly in cheek, surely he could qualify.

    Oh damn, that’s a good list of open source weirdos, most of them unsurprisingly white dudes…It really sucks that there’s so many creeps in open source. I was surprised by The Primogen associations, Louis Rossmann is a guy I kinda suspected of being not good. Welp, two more people to cut out of my YouTube watching.

    I need to remember the multiple people that pointed me to Next.js and lose some respect retroactively. Though it did feel like a sneaky Vercel ad even back then.
