@binkle @bonifartius I actually used to admire Phil Fish and his asshole behavior. I was just a teenager at the time and thought, "yeah if I got successful, I would be the same way".

Now, I realize that's not a good way to present yourself and just leads you into becoming a lolcow.

@SuperDicq @lina @9to5Mac @PurpCat @Pi_rat Honestly due to the "magazine" design of the web, I don't think it is really usable for screenreaders even if you put alt-text on all images. Gopher or Gemini would be better suited for those purposes.

@bonifartius Nothing in particular, but he's back on fedi.

@SuperDicq @lina @9to5Mac @PurpCat @Pi_rat Let's see here. You are going to have one side tell them to say TND and the other side scolding them for not putting descriptive enough alt-text on their art.

Drew Devault is the Phil Fish of the FOSS sphere.

@SuperDicq @hj @ube @Phobos @protos @nicole He is (was) a fan of Vim and Suckless thinks that even Vim is bloat. These are people who think that configuring should be done on the source code level.

@SuperDicq @hj @ube @Phobos @nicole I'm surprised that he didn't include an antifa flag given that he included one on his blog.

@SuperDicq @hj @ube @Phobos @nicole To be fair, the original Vim still has Ukrainian flags on their website too.

@ube @Phobos @nicole @SuperDicq @hj I don't think Drew is doing these things out of moral principles. Most likely, he is just very narcissistic, and is using woke leftism as a cover.

Even before he started his blog and the projects he was known for, he was very infamous on calculator forums for hijacking communities and demanding that they cater to his narrow worldview. On Omnimaga, the forum he was most active on, he demanded that a MLP thread that he didn't have to participate in be locked and threatened to leave if it wasn't. He used the exact same tactic he uses now by pretending that everyone else shares the exact same opinion as him. Eventually, he got promoted to moderator status on the forum, only because of his programming skills and nothing else, and then abused his privilege by shutting down their IRC channel because he couldn't win an argument against someone, and deleting threads about projects he didn't liked.

This was all back in 2011 (pre-culture war). He acted the exact same way he does know, just without the politics (though he did try to push "Enlightened Atheism" down everyone's throat).

@SuperDicq @hj @ube @Phobos @protos @nicole Suckless devs have been labeled "fascist" recently. I bet Drew avoids them like the plague.

@ube @Phobos @nicole @SuperDicq @hj Okay, minus the doxing part.

@SuperDicq @hj @ube @Phobos @nicole The people who deserve the KiwiFarms treatment are the ones who do actual harm and cause problems to communities. People Drew DeVault and XKeeper 100% deserve the KF treatment for cancelling people and subverting projects or in XKeeper's case preventing entire IP ranges from viewing a wiki because one user in said range visited a website they didn't like.

Other than that, I do not care about what some e-celeb may have posted 10+ years ago.
