Microsoft and Alphabet have plenty of motivation to keep things on track, as does the Linux Foundation and others. I suspect that, if things get completely out of hand, that corporate sponsors might impress their will upon the Rust Foundation to address any issues around governance.
Politics will creep into anything, if one allows that to happen.
- Mountain_Skies 3y agoGoogle and Microsoft are political entities with their own political agendas that sometimes aren't aligned with profit making. Many of the activists in CoC dominated communities don't care the slightest bit about profit or even continued existence of their entity if it means they can enforce their brand of ideological purity. FAANG entities threatening to reduce or eliminate resource allocation to a project will for some be evidence of the capitalistic desire to control everything and will motivate the community to welcome the purge of the unclean from their community.
