I’ve been here for quite a while, and I’ve learned more from this community (which included developers across the planet) than I’ve learned from any other community online.

I’ve known PG’s biases and dogwhistles for a while ("What you can’t say" is a FOGHORN of a dogwhistle), but the political landscape has changed.

When PG is expressing open regret for opening this forum, despite dang doing most of the work, he’s signaling that the discussion of this forum isn’t going in the direction he wants. This has been the most civil forum on the surface web for a long time. And that says a lot.
