Can you elaborate? I don't really follow him closely but feel like he's fighting for what's right. I saw another commenter said he wasn't affiliated anymore...

There a lot going on there. This link is one of the better write-ups.

Basically it comes down to misrepresenting funding/donations. Misrepresenting licensing. And open association with tech bro fascists like Yarvin. Rossman has had issues in the past himself. Though small enough and few enough outside his association with futo to not be too problematic. Enough that I can support his right to repair work. Just not Futo.

I'm sorry, I tried to digest that write-up, but its just a spiteful personal wall of bs full of fringe leftist commentary and hate; the dude can't hold himself from insulting anyone he names in there because they somehow don't share his whatever perfect view of how everything is supposed to be. I can't take this kind of bs, i didn't even got to the third paragraph and already wanted to slap the guy and tell him to chill-dfq-off lmao.

If someone has a point, make the point, prove it, and then come up with the opinion based on that. (Like X did Y, hence X is an asshole.)

But in this case its quite clear the writeup is an "opinion first" look for proofs after situation.

Which of the poor innocent people that meany pants Drew Devault insulted, do you take issue with? Lunduke? I've read this article before and while I don't remember all of the callouts, I can't recall seeing anyone I would particularly want to defend from insults.
