Mental health and wellness issues in high tech research and development are everywhere. I would suggest that you focus on the product and what it can/cannot do for you.
Suggest away. It’s still a factor in my decision making, because if I can’t trust the developers to behave well, i can’t trust the product to continue to do what it says it can do for me.

#282I love GrapheneOS and I use it daily for more than 2 years. However, and as Louis Rossmann pointed out in one of his videos, they really need to work on the "defensiveness" and "rants" of their communication. Even when they are 99% right most of the time, they sometimes don't come as mature and professional.

#283I personally can't understand why anyone bothers doing open source anything. This Micay guy spends so much time and does something hugely beneficial and we're arguing about how he responds to criticism? I'd rather direct and blunt rather than the weasel words and lies most companies put out.

He made it sound like Daniel was going crazy on him for no apparent reason over a single comment he posted on the Techlore video when for one, we were wary of him already due to past disagreements and, more importantly, that very video is responsible for the swatting attacks that were aimed at getting Daniel killed by law enforcement. The swatting attacks were carried out by someone who loved the Techlore video a little too much. Do you see where I'm going? Rossmann had voiced his support for the very video that is responsible for the attempted murder on Daniel's life, I reckon you will understand that Daniel was upset over this.
Not much time had passed since these attacks took place so Daniel messaged Rossmann to figure this out and explain to him what this was all about. In private mind you, whereas Rossmann decided this was peak content and live streamed it while the chat was still taking place. Any human being with a basic sense of empathy and decency would have not done this since it was obvious that Daniel was in a bad headspace.
Yet he did so anyway. I guess that's not all too surprising given it was an excellent catch for his following on Kiwi Farms which he caters to.

All of the defensiveness is warranted. They speak neutrally and objectively. The project is not going to relinquish control to any 3rd party. Not even the Motorola partnership is given control over the GOS project. The hypothetical you describe is not possible by design. The GOS project takes no issue with critical thinking, and encourages it. But that is often used as an excuse to handwave attacks. There is a very b…
