Honestly incredibly excited that Bitcoin Core folks are finally more strictly creating an environment where contributors can focus on code rather than letting things get bogged down in stupid drama. This is incredible news for Bitcoin.

I missed it, what happened.
He attacks Bitcoin
This motivates a major change to Bitcoin
In the resulting discussion on github, he approves of this change (that is motivated by his attack)
If you point out this conflict of interest - no matter how politely - you will be banned.
@ODELL hope you're paying attention to all this

Ty, no this is fucked. Mechanic was right to point out the conflict of interest.
Matt, you're in the wrong here. Massively. Switching to knots.
Yes, I think he was right to point out the conflict of interest but Loop might also be right. (He's not the mod but obviously found it convenient)
Please elaborate, and for sure how we can help keeping #Bitcoin safe.
So since stupid drama is out now, we're can finally get CTV+CSFS done, right??
My main concern with moderation is that it can drag culture war stuff into a project. But I think the moderation process is transparent enough to keep an eye on that.
Still need to decide if I'm going to do Drama Mondays and not go anywhere this stuff on other days. Like today.
Speaking of frequent sources of drama that deter many people from seriously looking at these proposals.
Bitcoin Core’s GitHub exists to allow contributors to contribute and build good software. Sure, banning people who show up with no intent to contribute creates drama elsewhere, but “are you preventing contributors from contributing” is a pretty clear line. If people can’t stomach that, that’s on them.
Also, CTV helps projects like Citrea, so it should result in *more* OP_RETURN data.
You must be talking about their censorship of certain voices on the Bitcoin Core repo cf
