https://github.com/lightning/bolts/pull/1208
Enough for me to never update neither my core node nor my lightning node.
Come on, what am I missing? Who's this ariard guy that you care so much? He sounded a bit paranoid in his comments and you now also look paranoid to distrust binaries over moderation issues in a protocol repository? LN wallet devs are free to completely ignore what the bolt repo introduces or refuses to introduce. What's your concern?
So ... they decided to want a CoC. He wanted a different CoC. Nobody answered to his concerns. He kept talking to himself. The CoC got merged and applied to him, resulting in a 3m ban? nostr:npub1dz449nhzzm7f9k3n28en8xtm8nveamf97yp3pjgzwdsw7e3mcl6swlx56h is this about right?
I think he got banned because of this comment: https://github.com/lightning/bolts/pull/1207#issuecomment-2457109597
A bit edgy but all in all this alone is probably not reason to get blocked. I'm not too familiar with this repo but it looks like ariard isn't a major contributor and his comments were not welcome, so ... not sure if there is anything important going on. Noisy individuals can burn up a lot of resources but contention over moderation can also bring noisy individuals so not sure ...
It has been a long time coming. For every rule there is a patient zero. Nothing to see here IMO.
am i missing some context, or is there some legitimacy to the questions? even if they are being asked in a somewhat abrasive way?
Seems like a normal question to ask? That said, I don't know how much else he has said/done to piss of the rest of the community
No way it is!
That's why I'm not updating my node anymore, unless he gets a voice.
Good luck with their woke interests.
