That is also your side of the story. It's easy for people to defend a product they love. The developer to user ratio for Linux Mint and Cinnamon is very out of balance, and this is a behind the scenes perspective that I don't think people would be able to observe anyway, since most of it happened on a private Slack.

Actually I don't use Linux Mint. Just wanted to let you know how people feel about anonymous internet slandering without proof.

See the other response to my root comment, it links to a Reddit thread where you can find out who I really am, as he was using my full name to slander me. This is not anonymous internet slandering.

Again, you'll need to offer something else if you wish to credibly defend your claim, because that post is not doing the work you think it is.

[bezier-curve]

I think you should allow people to have a space to tell their side. My side of the story is just as credible as his, the only difference is he's more well known, and if that alone is what you think matters most, it shows your bias.

That post was made 3 years ago. People change, and it does not invalidate the way I experienced what happened, even if I failed to articulate it effectively at the time. I only shared it to provide proof of the dispute, not to win sides.

It's not "the only difference" if he has left his side up and you have taken your side down. Of course people are going to be skeptical in that situation.

I see that thread also contains people asking for, and not receiving, proof of (now-deleted) allegations.

Publicizing somebody's full name in a forum thread is pretty bad practice imo
