“person leaves as planned in previous proclamation” is terrible news. We’ve heard this before.

Well, tbf Brodie had only just covered that Hector had left upstream.

Also, it’s hot on the heels of one of leads of the nouveau driver leaving redhat and the nouveau project altogether. Karol Herbst has pointed out friction with Linux kernel maintainers as well.

There are a number of other devs who are less… Shall we say set in their ways and are perceived as completely opposite to the free and open values they once encouraged 20 years ago. And i don’t think anyone wants to see the Linux community fragment along these lines.

I bet working on such a big project for so long changes people. There must be a lot of stupid and even downright malicious stuff that went down.

He only previously left the kernel though, right? He didn’t imply that he would be leaving Asahi, unless I missed something.
