Maybe the right thing to do is write up a statement and collect signatures, then post it to that thread
* make it a git repo where people can send signed commits :)

(that sounds like a bug)
I guess. But that's why I thought it was one post per hour for everyone
21:33:29
@joepie91:pixie.townjoepie91 πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆyeah understandable. that's definitely not how it's supposed to work afaik21:33:43

Can you post here for example: https://discourse.nixos.org/t/nixcon-na-2024-is-getting-sponsored-by-anduril-what-to-do-about-it/41258/4

Or does it also say "Please wait an hour between posts in this topic"

21:35:30
@patka_123:matrix.org@patka_123:matrix.org Because I think what piegames intentended is actually not how it currently is working 21:35:52

This is a company that is facilitating murder of people and on the Discourse we can see the majority is not interested in their contributions being affiliated with Anduril
I absolutely do support that sentiment and still fail to see how Anduril already using NixOS and killing people with it, is somehow less important.

@shalokshalom:dendrite.matrix.orgShalok ShalomHow is the usage of the software less critical as the support of it?21:37:13

if we're going to do feature testing it is probably best done in a testing thread, to avoid pollution and distraction

@mangoiv.:matrix.org@mangoiv.:matrix.org For people who didn’t see it in the foundation channel 21:37:30
@tomberek:matrix.orgtomberekThis channel is to discuss a policy that we should adopt. If there are specific questions, I can answer them (please do so in a thread so it is easier to track the flow of the discussion, and allow the original people to participate in that thread without piling in too much).21:37:51

I think both are bad, and I suspect that quite a few others feel so too, but that is a problem with a much harder solution

Just wondering if you see an input box and not that message I sent earlier

Yes it always says that as long as the feature is active. I think the check only happens while actually posting? Also, likes definitely shouldn't count to that

oh right. if I hit Reply I get an input box yes
21:38:35
@rhelmot:matrix.orgrhelmotI think GitHub is probably our best bet for a platform to publish a statement on this issue for linkage and signatures21:38:55
@joepie91:pixie.townjoepie91 πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ tomberek: note that many people cannot use threads either due to client support or cognitive incompatibilities 21:39:10
@patka_123:matrix.org@patka_123:matrix.org Turns out I'm just a big dummy. Nevermind. Sorry for the false alarm :P 21:39:09
@joepie91:pixie.townjoepie91 πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ * tomberek: note that many people cannot use threads on Matrix either due to client support or cognitive incompatibilities 21:39:19
@rhelmot:matrix.orgrhelmotWould anyone like to volunteer to write an initial draft of a statement and/or host it under their namespace? I would offer but I am very new to this community and worry about optics21:40:25
@joepie91:pixie.townjoepie91 πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ rhelmot: what sort of statement are you thinking of? 21:41:14
@rhelmot:matrix.orgrhelmotSomething to summarize the community consensus and collect signatures in support of β€œdo not do this”21:41:45
@shalokshalom:dendrite.matrix.orgShalok ShalomDo we talk about a statement about how the conclusion formed, to accept the second sponsorship, or a statement of the community, that we disagree with it?21:41:55
@shalokshalom:dendrite.matrix.orgShalok ShalomAh, yeah. 21:42:04
@joepie91:pixie.townjoepie91 πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ rhelmot: would the intended recipient of this statement be the Foundation, the internet at large, something else? 21:42:30
@shalokshalom:dendrite.matrix.orgShalok ShalomI think we should include the reasoning for the why as well, cause I still dont know that as an example and I have failed to read that in the above discussion21:42:38
@shalokshalom:dendrite.matrix.orgShalok Shalomor anywhere else, really.21:42:43
@rhelmot:matrix.orgrhelmot I think the board members who have the ability to reverse the decision 21:42:50
