What's going on with the Godot engine? (self.outoftheloop)

I saw the apology statement and the original tweet but I'm genuinely confused about what people are mad about?

Especially mad enough to make a fork of the Godot engine?

I did watch This video from Games From Scratch but he barely gives any actual information about what people are mad about. The most information I got is that a joke tweet was made and a non-affiliated moderator went a little overboard.

What am I missing here? What's got everyone so upset?

Cool. Let's see how that goes.

My guess is that at best they're going to mirror all the merges happening in the main godot repo with the only difference being the custom branding, but even that they will probably lose interest after a few months and peter out. I highly doubt there's going to be any unique developments or improvements. And even if they do? The main Godot repo could just yoink them right back lol.
