An interesting observation: until now Elementary OS == Cassidy James. I'd never even heard of this other person. Every commit I looked at, every app I downloaded, every blog post I read, every Tweet, etc all had Cassidy's name on it. Even now I'm not even sure what this other person does. I haven't used Elementary OS in some years but I've always kept an eye on it.
So to me at least, elementary OS is functionally dead, even if it's not technically dead. I don't care about the drama or who said what or who owed what person what money - the person who did all the work left, and I expect to stop seeing news about elementary OS soon. That simple.
- gurkendoktor 5y agoIf you look at some PRs on elementary's GitHub, you will see that neither Cassidy James nor Danielle were cranking out mountains of code at any point in time. Both were involved in reviews and UX decisions, Cassidy seemed a bit more in charge of communications lately, but the majority of elementary OS code has come from volunteers for as long as I've followed its development.
