@J @tk @anemone @sun I am wary to support him in future simply because he will go where the money is and if that means dropping entirely support and development for something he championed and convinced us to focus on something else without even so much as a warning that it would be depreciated I don't think he is somebody to back. when nostr dries up (it's drying up now and has been since launch) and the money runs out what will he focus on then if there's no money coming in?

I agree with you that you can't fault him. but he called me a coward when I told him I can't in good conscious peddle his wares (rebased+soapbox) in it's current iteration because it's over a half a year behind current pleroma and it's security patches. I disabled selling instances entirely and I told him this and I told him I terminated his affiliate because going forward we need to focus on pleroma+soapbox and pleroma+pleroma fe. it wasn't a discussion, I was just a coward for not continuing. I think that's probably what soured me on this the most.

tldr I love Alex and I can't fault him but he's left thousands of us quite literally in the dust for something that is on its way to be more vaporware than fedi was
