So... not the entire Ruby community. And specifically not people who put in the work so far. What is with this weird phrasing?
Andre's new condition is to have a "legal agreement" to settle "legal claims". I suppose a court of law looks unfavorably upon him registering a false trademark and ssh'ing into a former company's service from a foreign country (among other acts).
Partly due those revelations, Andre's supporters seemed to have simmered down recently. I assume word has put out that further oversharing and politiking would be legally consequential.

- Matz letting things evolve too much on their own since the beginning of Ruby and not carefully adding new features. People made fun of it because there are too many ways of doing things (bloat).
- I think DHH did a great job, but then he let go too much to the wrong people.
- All the Zed stuff, massive changes in Rails in 4.x, then Ember (adapters to well-used frameworks would’ve been so much better), then 7 was just too different.
- Ruby 2.7.7 / poor handling of mac amd arch. This killed it for me.
- MRuby and Crystal.
- When Rails lost a big part of the community to Elixir.
