As usual, @brainwane's writing on a complicated topic are clear, thoughtful, direct, and bring the receipts to the table: "Not The First Time We Tried (FSF, GNU, RMS, etc.)" https://www.harihareswara.net/sumana/2021/03/26/0
@cwebber
It's the thing that gets me with the support for RMS, You can point at this, and Bradley's and Matthew's posts and some folks will see it as a corporate conspiracy leading a mob. Rather than wonder if the environment drove people elsewhere. Nearly a week later and I'm still stunned at it happening and the way it was handled. If the FSF can't change then we need to move on.
@brainwane
@cwebber @acuteanniemay @onepict @brainwane That’s the first I read which says clearly that rms was not appointed back as president, only taken back into the board.
And it’s wrong about the GNU system (I have a GNU system VM running on Guix — GNU with Hurd instead of Linux). Fully Free Software is what I want.
Interesting is that quite some of the backlash against rms comes from the groups that are the strongest proponents of the all-must-be-free culture he established.
