Why was Jon Ringer banned from GitHub?
discourse.nixos.org
I came across a Reddit post indicating that Jon Ringer, a significant contributor to the NixOS project, has been banned from GitHub. This raises some critical questions: Could this adversely impact the NixOS 24.05 release? What are the specific reasons behind the moderation team’s decision to ban Jon Ringer from GitHub? I think it’s safe to say that the broader community would be eager to get answers to these questions.

    This reeks of astroturf. That’s a lot of effort to put into saying absolutely nothing of substance. I cannot assume in good faith impartiality.

      I don’t know what AstroTurf means. Jon might be in the wrong, and I’ll edit my comment to put bad stuff at the top once I’m caught up. I’m just giving the info I have. If you have some let me know.

      If AstroTurf means a bot, check my history here and on Github (jeff-hykin)
