Stopped reading at "Mastodon BDFL (Benevolent Dictator for Life) ".
Giant eyeroll. It even mentions there's a dozen forks already, just upset that none of the changes have been merged to the origin upstream.
Make an argument without devolving to namecalling in the first 2 paragraphs.
It's not namecalling, it is a term that gets used and that Rochko talked about himself in an interview. There's a footnote.
Sorry ... downvoted.
The statement in the article had a footnote that provided a link to a 2022 Verge article in which Rochko said on the "BDFL model":
Moreover his behaviour in maintaining Mastodon is very much inline with this model. It wasn't name calling, it is literally what he is and happy to be described as.
