Yeah this is about Stallman being back on the board of the FSF. Kev Quirk has good thoughts about how it was communicated. Me, I’m tired. I had just been thinking how some of my favorite people have been driven off the public Internet via doxxing and harrassment.

And now Free Software’s problematic fave – one of many, to be honest – is back, without so much as a hint of personal responsibility. Bah.

I’m not purging my system or anything, but I’m sure as hell done making a point of using GNU tools. This affects the FSF not one bit. It’s only me conserving my energy for things I can care about.
