He also went to prison
It's honestly a fascinating read. We count so much on these kinds of people to keep our way of life intact, but when they ask for a little help in their own life, they get spat on.
It's really, really sad that this sort of stuff doesn't get picked up and funded for the greater good. Stuff like the NLnet Foundation exists, which has helped fund some pretty major projects (including the development of Lemmy), but something this critical I feel should be consistently funded by even larger entities in order to keep things working right.
That feels it went seriously bad
This story got me sad. But also, the guy should know better as not to dedicate all of his time on that. This article talk a bit about this issue.
