> Just to clarify, I meant that I don’t get why people care that Micay is weird and sometimes has anti-social responses. He’s developing an incredible product, you don’t have to be friends with him or even like him.
I don’t know the whole history, but to me it’s the attitude of the group around GrapheneOS, the troops that are rallied on HN.
I see your point; for me, how an organisation (company, author, artist, etc.) acts or behaves is something I do take into consideration.
I am a fan of GrapheneOS but find the consistent childishness of the online community and communications embarrassing.
