Lol @ all the screenshots in that article having a casa watermark

I’m not getting into sharing child porn for Udi so there is that.

I do not trust Jameson Lopp. This article further cements that. He leads with ad hominem attacks and says nothing about the issue at hand. That said, If Luke is a risk as a single maintainer, what can we do to get him some support.

Isn’t is a simple as creating another copy of the software, host it, let people know where to download it and follow good documentation practices? The philosophy for this version would be to treat it as frozen unless there’s some as of yet unknown emergency: the feature is there are no features. Bitcoin is perfect for now, no development required.

That thread singing his praises is harder to swallow than lopps thread about how he's bad for bitcoin... I don't care for this whole knots vs core thing but lopps seems to be right that it's more about lukes character then any technical issue. And these long article about how he is either the devil incarnate or an angel are equally hard to believe

Lopp is an evil shitcoiner. View quoted note →

The problem is that you focus on Luke, and Luke isn't the problem. The problem is Core, and the solution is that we need alternative clients so that there can be true consensus. But it's a very good technique to divert the discussion to Luke, Luke, Luke is bad. We actually use knots because there is no alternative, regardless of Luke.

With his commit and BIP authoring history, it's more accurate to say core is mostly knots code than vise versa.

People are multi-dimensional.
