Everything I’ve learned about this man has been against my will

I tried being nosy and went to the discord server. From what I can gather within the official discord, it seems likely a similar situation to former Minecraft mod loaders drama. Weird, intercommunity drama and general disagreements about the future of the project resulting in a massive split. It seems that there was discussion of potentially improving upon the code of forge and having it run smoother and maybe incorporating an existing project (sodium it seems?) and if such suggestion was actually incorporated that would have potentially disrupted the forge main download site's ability to generate ad revenue, and such suggestion apparently morphed into tension that had been seemingly brewing for months. Apparently, the guy they parted ways with was given the forge project and basically owns the rights to the name, website, ad revenue on the website, and is in control of community donations. All of it seems like a hot mess regardless, but we will see what the truth is in time I presume.
Take what I'm saying with a grain of salt though, I could be completely wrong.
Finally I can ditch outlook and still have a nice UI!
Looks like chromeOS a bit.
That makes me sick to my stomach. How utterly absurd.
Please take care of yourself. We seriously appreciate you and everything you've done, same goes for all other staff. This past week has immensely stressful across the lemmyverse and no one blames you at all for needing to tap out from all this. A lot of people are expecting lemmy and lemmy instances to be like reddit 2.0, but that's just not humanly possible. It also feels like lemmy as a software has had it personally out for beehaw... kind of like a murphy's law situation.
I installed it, looked around, and deleted it.
It depends on the instance in my experience. Beehaw is a good one though, I feel.
Which apps are specifically turning into fediverse apps? Very curious.
Here's to hoping microsoft decides to allow them to move on over to lemmy.
I spend a lot more time on it since I am an instance admin. (not on this account or instance though)
