#2We only have the point of view of becachefs main developer here of course, but some things regarding some kernel developer and the CoC committee seem to be really concerning.

#3Not sure why all these submissions are dead - vouched for this one (as it had a comment at least). Even though we see only 1 side of the story, I find it very important that it is definitely a sign of very big changes in the kernel-governance (which have been brewing since a couple of years).

I don't often post here (I forgot to check the guidelines), should I have left the original title "(bcachefs) Trouble in the kernel" ?
While the article that follows is well written, the original title feels very vague and clickbaity for me. Like "you won't guess what's wrong with this !!!".
I felt this give a much better idea of the content (technical problems that exposed people problems) and give chance to people that don't want to read about kernel politics / drama a chance to skip the article.

Maybe because people seem to be very emotional about this right know? I'm myself not sure if this is related to the woke mind virus or Kent being a dick

What are you concerned about? Kent's continuous, repeated assholery got flagged up to the CoC committee, who took appropriate action.
This is why we have CoCs. This is why we need CoCs.
