@toothbrush so much drama and fragile prides hurt, are they finally gonna get back to coding?

In my opinion the other dev involved stepping down was inevitable, I read their recent blog posts and it seems like more burnout and this being the final straw.

Though the constant resistance from people like Hellwig were part of the reason for that burn out, though not the only reason.
