    If anyone is panicking, ask them how they feel about the ‘RealName’ field that has been in systemd for years (since the beginning?)

    This is fake controversy and now it’s at the point where people are spreading articles, like the OP, brigading people into harassing a systemd developer.

      Exactly. And that’s the part that worries me most: I’m seeing people investigating the guy, shaming him (he wrote a blog about using Claude to write a game in 90 minutes, so clearly he must be evil /s), and the article above is written in such a way to insinuate all sorts of nefarious goings on, but everything I see suggests this is just normal procedure.

      I really feat this is going to hurt the community and chase good developers away.
