Back on Reddit there were people who set up scripts to automatically delete comments after a set amount of time to prevent people from looking at their history. As you could probably guess, they were usually the most stubborn and argumentative sort on the platform.
Though I’ve upvoted that user before and I normally don’t do that to people being disruptive, so who knows? If only there were some sort of history that would tell me what kind of user they were…
The funny thing is the whole commercialization process started with one of the future partners messaging the project lead out of the blue on LinkedIn. I don’t know about you, but taking ideas from a random LinkedIn user doesn’t strike me as good business sense.
Then again, getting something out of your years of unpaid volunteer work must be incredibly tempting, given how many open source projects have sold out over the years. At least it was to form an actual legitimate company this time, unlike when SuperSU (the Android root solution before Magisk came along) sold themselves to a scummy foreign ad company. That one still ranks as the all time top WTF sale.
