What does Lemmy think of Daniel Supernault or on mastodon?
-
But what is the good work Dan has done
-
Because it literally doesn't matter. As soon as the story starts with "I called him out a lot for making no progress," the issue is you.
-
Dan needs gratitude for everything he has done already!
-
No it's calling him out a completely different thing
-
Well, I'm not really that interested, to be honest. Sorry...
I just wanted to remind you that you're not this dude's manager, and it's probably not really your place to be worrying about his rate of progress.
If you want him to do something for you, maybe find out some way to pay him, otherwise just sit on your hands and wait for him to do whatever he ends up doing, because pestering people on social media is never going to achieve anything other than getting you blocked. People don't like being bothered, especially not by random dudes on social media.
If you're excited about loops (or any other FOSS development), then the best way to express that is just by telling people how excited you are, not trying to grill them like you're their boss or something.
That's just my opinion as a FOSS developer of 6+ years.
-
Then why do you care about Loops then?
-
Yeah usually the unreliable narrator is supposed to at least make themselves look like the good guy lol.
-
Loops app update is coming on the weekend, that was a few weekends ago.
I get a nice little chuckle out of him saying it's coming this weekend.
He makes good things but he really needs to let go of the rope and let other people help him more, also I think he needs to sleep so he doesn't go do and say dumb shit online.
I've seen him have little crazy rants on discord then delete them a minute or so later.

Foss developers are donating their time and expertise to develop something for free for everyone. You have no right to demand they do this. If u have an issue go write the fucking code urself and make a pull request.
If u donated a large sum of money then u might have the right to ask what's happening. Pay the developer for their time or shut the fuck up and be gratefull.

Keep talking and you will end up on [email protected]
-
I'll hear you out can you explain with only the context I've given you btw I only told two people the entire story. Why calling him out is the issue. Let's put you on the spot and watch you crumble
-
Btw I only read like two sentences because the rest is obviously you wanting to be on you high horse over 2 sentences. Also you don't know the story so your not going to say anything useful
-
I'll tell the whole story if you actually care
-
They’re squirming hard in this thread 🤭
-
You forgot he made loops in between now and the point when you made the post, chasing after him to make loops more (to the point he started blocking you)?
And now you're bringing up that he's getting paid, sort of as a way to throw more shade at him I guess, instead of happy that fedi developers are getting paid?
Dude... I don't even know what to say. I think you need to grow up some before trying to interact with any fedi developers directly.
-
I made a loops video calling him out for those weekend updates and he went out of his way to delete it on loops
-
Well lets hear it then.
-
Absolutely. As a Foss developer and advocate for freedom and equity, I know this too well. A thank you goes a long way. Dan has done great work.
-
Actually Dan sup is actually asking for money and has done a Kickstarter. But hey I'm happy to put people down
-
You're gonna have to explain what that means. Are my comments going to posted there?
