I will no longer be able to assist with development nor debugging actual issues with the software… Quite juvenile behavior from the devs. It stemmed from this issue where the devs continuously argued in public by opening and closing an issue. Anyway, thought I would keep y’all apprised of the situation, since these are the people maintaining the software you are currently using.

I think that you should update your post with information that this ban is only for 7 days.

This:

I will no longer be able to assist with development

suggests that ban is infinite, which is not true.

Yeah but if you were in this position would really want to contribute again? It’s virtually an indefinite ban when the reason is this absurd.

Yes, If I would contribute to lemmy, I wouldn’t do it for the devs, but for the software and its users.

EDIT: But don’t think that I support nutomic’s reaction to OP’s comments.

Screw that. The devs are a key component in a software project.

By the way, it’s “its* users”.

Where do you see that information? I didn’t even know it was possible to do this until last night so not sure how I’m supposed to know how long it lasts.

Sorry, I assumed that github shows it to you somehow. I know about it from nutomic’s comment

thank you, yes I their comment later on. No, github didn’t even tell me I was banned. I happened to notice because I left the tab open and was moving through them trying to find something else.

Someone just linked me this, seems to be a bit of a misunderstanding. Pm me either through here or on matrix and we can try to get it resolved.

From Nutomic in this very post:

You kept posting offtopic comments which added nothing to resolving the issue. So I gave you a seven day ban, hopefully it will teach you a lesson.

Where’s the misunderstanding? Seems like this was intended based on their reaction.

Informative, and unfortunate.

100% agree with your take on the original issue - it should be a discussion between the devs, not edging along the lines of an argument. However, I do feel like the discussion would have been better suited to the dev Matrix chat or something

Even if they were upsetted by your comments, banning you was not the right way to handle that IMO.

Just do it like other projects - tag it as enhancement, postpone it forever, be done with it. And in case it’s a useful enhancement, you can see the votes accumulating on the issue and maybe really reconsider implementing it?

Do you watch Louis Rossmann? I’ve heard him say that phrase many times in his videos.

Idk I think y’all are a bit too dramatic lol. Imho you’re reading too much into a small aggression. This has nothing to do with the future of Lemmy or anything as grandiose as that

I didn’t say it did. I mentioned that it would affect me, the person who runs the server you’re commenting on. That’s it.

It is certainly becoming a pattern. Similar upsets around both moderation and database optimization.

Hey bud when was the last time you went outside for a walk in nature and talked to someone in IRL? Because you seem to have created the most useless drama for yourself.

Let’s not go that far. That said, it’s certainly not everything to do with it either. Let’s call it an indicator and keep an eye on it.

Quite juvenile behavior from the devs.

The constant closing and reopening the issue was a bit weird but I didn’t really see any hostility or toxic behavior, except from you getting pissy about it out of nowhere.
