    And he didn’t even need to say anything at all which is the ridiculous thing lost in all this. It was amateur hour showing a huge lack of foresight you’d expect a CEO to have when it comes to things as simple as PR.

      Regardless of what we think of his comments, it’s good that he is vocal about his opinions. Makes him seem like a person than some faceless CEO they says nothing.

      He just got spicy with this 1 post and it hasn’t worked out for him and now the open source community Proton is a part of hate him. There is so much hate that they are leaving Mastodon which is a huge shame
