I am stepping back from the #Tusky project with immediate effect.
I discovered severe lapses in how the Tusky project's donations (received via #OpenCollective) were being handled. When I reported those to the project's private "Tusky Contributors" Matrix channel the financial admins tone policed the feedback, refused to engage with the concerns I and others raised, and demanded the discussion be stopped.
There is too much detail for a thread, so please read https://write.as/nikclayton/stepping-back-from-the-tusky-project.
I’d like to hear the other side too, but it’s hard to imagine there’s no foul play at all.
Let’s see, they have mentioned they’ll come with an answer: https://birb.site/@charlag/110967792971490761
Quite sad, because Nik was the most active developer on the project. All my (small) contributions were reviewed by him: https://github.com/tuskyapp/Tusky/pulls?q=is%3Apr+author%3Atinsuke
