It doesn't really matter, because their target audience does not care about that.

No true Scotsman.

It’s sad to see this childishness around what should be an important project.

The point being made is if the project and code were important to you, you wouldn’t be judging it based on the founder’s social media habits…just how it runs, and if it continues to do that year after year.

Spoiler, it’s great, and will continue on.

[antonvs]

You can't categorically exclude a founder's personality as an indicator of a project's ability to thrive.

All the people basically defending this or saying it's not an issue only makes it worse.

It's a perfect example of the problem: a founder is a leader, and a leader's behavior spreads and can infect the team and community.

[DANmode]

Simply name a project that’s failed due to this, or suggest a vector through which it could happen here for the first time.

Being okay with someone being unhinged while defending themselves over and over again hardly seems divisive.

Maybe you can frame your objection better?

Genuine question: are you familiar with the controversy of how Linus Torvalds used to frequently operate at the helm of the Linux kernel fiefdom?

I don't understand what you mean. Did I add rants to GrapheneOS docs?
