    If there are multiple independent people coming in complaining about you and/or your co-maintainer, maybe the problem is you and not the whole community. Especially if your co-maintainer wears the honor of being the first person to be banned from matrix.org.

      Yes, maybe. Or maybe not.

      Here’s what I can verify:

      • the project is indeed archived
      • the Matrix protocol specification is problematic
      • people suck

      For the last point, I don’t know if this particular person sucks more than others in the same community. I can see they claim that, but I can’t independently verify that. I hope the Matrix community can see the constructive criticism here and fix the underlying issues, regardless of who is “right” here.

      Really? Do you realize how many people we’re talking about? This is where the idea that the human brain can’t comprehend interactions with too many people.

      “Multiple indepondant people” might be 5% of the people, some of them under the mob’s effect (wouldn’t engage alone).

      Maybe we miss another point of view, but maybe we don’t. This may be a screaming example of what you get as a representative of minorities getting a bit of attention.
