What are you actually trying to say here though?

I agree with not piling on and being wary of hearsay, but saying this and relaying back to what he’s achieved feels close to excusing things.
We also don’t know how many other folks’ contributions have been missing from the platforms we use, across the years, from others who would have been involved if not for his negative behaviour.

I have some similar vibes on all this re: Apple’s current direction.
I enjoy programming in Swift though. I like type safety, and how it can compose together. I like SwiftUI and declarative and reactive programming.
BUT… I crave a more open environment that isn’t enshittifying/locking things down in a way that isn’t necessary.
I kinda feel a bit technologically “homeless” at times, despite being quite comfy inside the walled garden

“The younger generations will fix it!”
*Gen Z does something*
“… no, not like that!”

Everyday I check the news and ask myself something akin to “are we out of the bad timeline yet?” and everyday the answer is “No”.
It’s been like this for years now, you’d think I’d learn my lesson

It amazes me that 4+ years into this all, some folk seem to think vaccination from Covid is one and done, that it confers full protection from infection, and that it protects you from long COVID.
It’s better than no vax, and will help keep you out of hospital and keep the acute infection down but… the dice roll on your immune system or any lasting damage is still there. The risk of cumulative damage of subsequent infections is still there.
You can’t vax long COVID risk to zero
