Hmm doesn't look like I wrote it in my journal but yeah, it was pretty gross. The reason given for the ban was some swearing in the message, but to my intuition the profanity was pretty tame, well-deserved, and ultimately just an excuse. I do remember the bug: Bose headphones have a low quality mode and a high quality mode (low quality frees bandwidth for microphone and maybe latency), and the linux bluetooth stack defaulted to the low bandwidth mode so aggressively that even if you changed the script to set high bandwidth mode it would immediately set back. I have no idea if the bug is fixed because this happened in 2020 and I haven't thought about desktop bluetooth since 2020 because TOSLink->1Mii Bluetooth Transmitter solved all my problems with it.
