So I’ve been reading through the deck homebrew discord trying to figure that out. A user claimed he was racist, and got him banned/kicked out of Decky over it. However as far as I can tell, no evidence of him being racist was ever posted, and the user that got him banned left the server afterwards.
It does sound like he was quick to get into arguments with some other users, but that’s not officially what he was banned over.
There may be better evidence I’m missing, there are a lot of messages discussing it in the server, but I see several people there claiming that banning him without evidence was an overreaction, so I’m assuming there isn’t anything concrete that I’ve missed.
My personal opinion from what I’ve seen is that I think the ban should be reversed, it seems like a shame to deprive the entire deck community from a useful tool unless there’s something more concrete I’m not seeing.
Being rude doesn’t get you too far in OSS.
But uh… Linus is kinda rude NGL. Part of his charm no?
No, it’s not. It’s tolerated because of his importance.
FYI - the owner of this site, gamingonlinux, was a mod on the !linux_gaming@lemmy.ml community until they were caught abusing their moderator powers. Then they deleted their account and complained on mastodon that it’s stupid design that mod logs are public. [Screenshot]
I’m always pointing out that public modlogs are good because they help prevent abusive mods.
