He completely deserves it. Between his first channel, Technical Difficulties (Citation Needed / One of those people are lying), the Plus Channel, Lateral… he has done a LOT of things. I’m sad , but also I can’t wait to see what will he do before the pause.
I’m greatly surprised how Lemmy and the fediverse society has responded with this. The bug was found yesterday, maybe? And I’ve read about it three, four times (in different servers); a temporal solution was published in hours and it’s already patched on the repo.
Another victory for Open Source and the Fediverse in general.
