    Admittedly I did not do a lot of digging for the best source and instead just skimmed and saw it summarizing the stuff I’d heard before. The original information comes from a podcast but instead of sourcing the podcast, the article decided to source a reddit thread which was just a transcript of the podcast… Bad journalism and I should’ve found a better source to site here. Either way, the original transcript is shown in the article.

      Don’t spread rumors about people without proof

        I mean the original transcript is in the article and it’s a primary source. I just sent a link that poorly sourced the original podcast. It’s not really a lack of proof and more so that the article is poorly displaying the proof we have.

            You’re all good :D this turned into a much more heated conversation in general and I also apologize for starting it. I should’ve included the primary source in the original message in the first place either way.

            I’m also sorry this turned out the way it did and I really appreciate and accept your apology. Lemmy is small enough that it’s very possible we’ll be seeing each other’s names in the future (and probably often) and I want you to know that I will be thinking highly of you when I do.
