SourceHut and its founder are the promulgators or a never ended stream of strong opinions and principled edicts that do little but alienate people. Drew’s solution to every problem is blocking and blackholing [0] which makes him seem weak and petty and suggests that by refusing to work constructively with people he’s mostly interested in strongarming and asserting dominance. I find it pretty hard to take him seriously and run from anything he’s associated with, even when I agree. There’s this concept called “non-violent communication” that he would be well-served to explore.

Non-violent communication works if you're talking to an individual as an equal but corporations cannot empathise or be empathised with. It's madness to try.

The open source developer of amfora is about as far as you can get from a corporation, though. And behind every cloudflare reverse proxy connection is a human. Blocking them for nothing other than their choice of Internet route stands antithetical to the foundational spirit of the net, which he is ostensibly trying to protect.

Promulgators... nice. Saving that in the lexicon for future use.

Yeah, it's usually used in the context of the unilateral issuing of decrees.
