Yeah, this is very nice. Just ban whatever package you like based on personal preference. While we're at it, why don't we ban software written by an ex-con or someone who doesn't feed stray cats.

This all happens because it's free. Nobody cares about the actual quality. If this whole get-it-for-free system wasn't in place, these two gentlemen could settle their differences and focus on the incoming money. That is how society outside the open source bubble works. People don't like each other, but still cooperate. Unfortunately, the world is full of anti-social hippies with too much time on their hands, killing off whole branches of industries simply by saying 'I will do it for free'.

The former CEO of Mozilla, who founded the browser, should take out hits on the progressives that ousted him.

That would be justice.

Please, "progressives". Anyone as perpendicularly opposed to free speech as that crowd isn't deserving of the term progressive, and should happily accept the title of totalitarian. They're the same camp as the "feminists" who have done more to undermine women's progress than centuries of institutionalized misogyny could have hoped for in their parroted group-babble.

While I won't condone hits (frankly, it'd undermine his legitimacy), I would agree that he made the wrong choice by stepping down. This juvenile attitude that everyone should agree or be trampled under the herd has been the MO for an ever growing body of spoiled children turned spoiled adults for decades now, and really needs to have its momentum turned around.
