I’m glad they were around because they were singlehandedly posting an obscene amount which really helped lemmy not feel like a ghost town back then. But, they clearly had mental health issues. No healthy person would post whatever he was doing… probably 1000 posts a day. Considering HOW unwell they were, they were relatively good natured. But you could see thier worldview was rooted in pretty serious personal issues. They were tedious, and frustrating, condescending, and a know it all. Absolutely couldn’t admit they were wrong… not even admit that weren’t perfectly right. But… they weren’t ok. I was glad when they disappeared, but mostly because I was really hoping they had been intervention-d by loved ones. To go cold turkey one day must have been BRUTAL for them. All in all I think he was the right person at the right time. Thier faults actually DROVE engagement, which was important for a blossoming platform. I don’t think anything they said or did was out of malice. A complicated person. I really hope they’re doing better.
