Does anyone have a TLDR about this story? I haven't had the time to follow all the drama.

  Just reading through his response takes quite a while, and at the end you're left either accepting his interpretation and explanation, or you need to probably wade through some multiple of that content in disparate other sources to get the other side. Given the types of complaints and their subjective nature in some instances, I imagine you're probably looking at something close to 4-5 hours at least to get enough context to form an objective opinion of your own on this situation if you aren't coming into it with that background knowledge already. I'm not willing to invest that.

  If there was a TLDR, would you believe it? What if there are two TLDRs that say completely opposite things? I don't follow Node, but I've seen the Bitcoin community get to a place where understanding the politics alone could be a full-time job. It's pretty sad.

  Honestly, GitHub gets more like Tumblr every day.

    It's been that way for a while. One of the big reasons I up and moved away from it. I only use it to send PRs for Github hosted repos now. It's amazing how quickly an organization or platform can just die like this. Sure, it isn't dead dead, but it's descended into a pit of political BS and petty drama.

  tl;dr: Politics 101. Prediction, the side that forked loses.
