I really don't think it is just that. It is not just Minsky/Epstein scandal, those are just something people who disliked how much more low key much less impactful "uncomfortable" behaviors were enabled.

And it has zero to do with open source to wining over FSF. Like, nothing at all, popular organization survive sex-abuse scandals just fine. Partly it is business friendliness, yes. But also, personally I remember finding culture around FSF off-putting years ago, for reasons that have nothing to do with Minsky/Epstein kind of issues.

I found that off-putting because of hollier then tho, we are geniuses everyone else is looser and if you don't agree with us is bad programmer attitudes. And the massive thread wars over everything that kind of pretend to be rational, but are actually massively emotional.
