The directors of the the GrapheneOS Foundation and the other things you're talking about are public information. I stepped down as lead developer due to relentless harassment preventing me from being productive. The same people targeting me with harassment misrepresented what was happening.

You shouldn't get info about GrapheneOS from Hacker News comments especially when multiple regulars here are part of the attacks on GrapheneOS. Hacker News permits people to freely engage in libel and harassment towards me on nearly every post about GrapheneOS.

I'm aware of what happened, and I'm getting GOS news directly, not from HN. However, you're still the biggest contributor of code to GOS (judging by commit history). That's what I meant.

    I'm not anywhere close to the biggest contributor of code to GrapheneOS. Do you think the account listed as the committer is the one writing it? That's not the author of the code, it's the account used to approve it.

That is a pretty poor and disappointing reply to be honest.

They asked a reasonable question and you barely even responded to anything they asked. The community deserves a response to the question.

What with this new chapter, it might be better for someone else to handle PR and comms for the project

    You use GrapheneOS which we provide to you free of any cost but yet you're being nasty towards us throughout this thread. Why do you think you deserve anything from us?

    Why should we participate on this platform at all when we have name calling, bullying and links to harassment content directed towards us with nothing being done about it?

      "nasty", "bulling", "harassment" ? Whatever.

      You seem to have a persecution complex. Ironically, baseless accusations of nastiness and harassment and weaponising language is also bullying. I'm out. Best of luck to the project, and to you personally.
