For personal reasons, I no longer feel safe working on Linux GPU drivers or the Linux graphics ecosystem. I've paused work on Apple GPU drivers indefinitely. I can't share any more information at this time, so please don't ask for more details. Thank you.

    Hector and others were really bad losses for the Rust kernel devs but Lina? That’s catastrophic. She was a figurehead in getting apple silicon working so well on Linux that even Linus moved his development machine to an M1 Macbook.

    Linus has royally fucked it with how long he sat on the side of this. Im so sorry to Lina and others who have been burned by this community.

    I imagine Ted T’so and dis stupid ‘thin blue line’ comment as well as him yelling at previous rust devs during in person meet ups was not happening in a vacuum.

    Linus has really failed at punishing these characters before toxcitiy killed any rust momentum at all.

    I find comments questioning Lina to be incredibly sus in origin and intention.

    I hope Lina & Cyan are safe.

    I left this post intentionally vague and scary so everyone speculates on why

    I wasn’t sure if Hector was gonna quit vtubing too after the Rust thing. Kind of a delayed response as his alter ego but it makes sense.
