it sure wasn't, considering that rms' highly problematic antics are well known for literal decades, and ddv only amplified them.

if not for the fact the bylaws of fsf basically give stallman control over the foundation no matter who's voted into the board, he'd be ousted many times.

i mean, there must come a reckoning, and believe me that every single dude on that list will try to memoryhole their activities

there's a few names i'd probably add; one is peter simon, known as probono, the appimage maintainer, a professional wayland hater (he's maintaining a ginormous gist that lists the failures of wayland, most of which is not true, not true anymore or at least grossly exaggerated).

primeagen was presenting on the omarchy parteitag (among other people presenting was tj devries, one of the neovim core devs).

the reasons he thinks programmers aren't workers seem to be threefold (a) they earn too much, (b) they don't sweat enough and (c) they align with their bosses. and – to me at least – is obvious, that he only deigns to use the word “worker” for people who do (hard enough) manual labour.

this – from a dude who has a baccalaureate in italianistics, magisterium in linguistics and studies for phd in history – is an obvious intelligentsja stereotyping. lad thinks he's punching up, and in reality he's punching down.
