      All of it. He was never an advocate for software being free or against the right of companies to monetize their API in any context. He was against a specific company using “monetizing” their API as an excuse to make it impossible for third party apps to exist.

      His position has not changed in any way and there is nothing that is in any way consistent between any of his statements or behavior.

        I never said he “advocated” anything.

        You’re arguing in bad faith. You are being toxic.

        I asserted some very basic things about how people may be familiar with this person, and you abstracted a whole fight.

        -He made a free app.

        -He gained greater public visibility during the reddit API price changes.

        Those are fucking facts, and those are quite clear in my original comment.

        I never claimed he was a champion of “free”.

          No, you are.

          Your presentation implied he owed someone something because he made an app that had a free version once.

          It absolutely is not, and does not resemble, “fair” to complain that a guy followed the bare minimum rules for an app to be allowed to exist.

            “no u”

            Followed by an assumption.

            Great stuff.

            It’s possibly fair you misunderstood me the first time, not everyone is a great reader, or ESL, or any other reason. .

            But you persisted after clarification, after I called on you to cite my words, not continue to invent your own. (Ex: you claiming I said he “advocated” for certain practices.) That’s toxic.

            I’m done with you. I’ve made my position very clear, and you’ve don’t nothing but bloviate your own issues and reality, rather than what’s written.

            Cya

              Notice how all of the replies are calling out the exact same malicious horseshit I did?

              But sure , it’s because I can’t read, not because you wrote something bashing someone for doing literally nothing wrong.

                What replies? You’re the only one speaking to me on this matter.

                Holy shit, do you think I’m someone else?
