I will no longer be able to assist with development nor debugging actual issues with the software... Quite juvenile behavior from the devs. It stemmed from this issue where the devs continuously argued in public by opening and closing an issue. Anyway, thought I would keep y'all apprised of the situation, since these are the people maintaining the software you are currently using.

I think that you should update your post with information that this ban is only for 7 days.

This:

I will no longer be able to assist with development

suggests that ban is infinite, which is not true.

Yeah but if you were in this position would really want to contribute again? It's virtually an indefinite ban when the reason is this absurd.

Yes, If I would contribute to lemmy, I wouldn't do it for the devs, but for the software and its users.

EDIT: But don't think that I support nutomic's reaction to OP's comments.

Screw that. The devs are a key component in a software project.

By the way, it's "its* users".

Thanks for correction, edited.

Unwilling =/= Unable, this is transparent sophistry

Where do you see that information? I didn’t even know it was possible to do this until last night so not sure how I’m supposed to know how long it lasts.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Sorry, I assumed that github shows it to you somehow. I know about it from nutomic's comment

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

thank you, yes I their comment later on. No, github didn't even tell me I was banned. I happened to notice because I left the tab open and was moving through them trying to find something else.
