Hi, I haven’t read this thread and I don’t really care to read all of it. I’ve always intended to get back into the Nix community after the issues with community management are sorted to my satisfaction. If jonrigner gets his commit bit back, I’m gonna be gone for good. Create whatever future you want to live in. Be well, Xe EDIT: Looks like his commit bit got back anyways. I hope you all enjoy the future you have created. So long, and thanks for all the fish.
They invited that guy back. I do have to admit, I admire his inability to read a room.
I spot another couple of big core-foundational-infrastructure projects in that list, at least a few of which are now also maintainer-less
nixos will be able to still coast on momentum for a while (because that’s how well-built infrastructure operates) but it looks like the deep cuts will start to eventually impact them in pure maintenance/upkeep burden alone. whether it’ll be enough to really “kill” it, dunno. I want to believe there’s not enough ops-clued chuds that they could find and hire, but I don’t know what the numbers really look like…
(not that I blame samueledr for their choice at all, more remarking in general)
