More details are available, but were hidden by one of the remaining project members. They're still available on archive.org:
https://web.archive.org/web/20231117190207/https://gitlab.com/fdroid/admin/-/issues/446 https://web.archive.org/web/20231117190207/https://gitlab.co...
Issue 448 is said to be relevant as well, and similarly hidden, but isn't available on archive.
The fact that a remaining project member seems to be actively hiding otherwise public discussion which would keep us more informed, seems to itself be noteworthy ("Because I felt like it" was the reason given). Indeed, that action seems to be an example of the unilateral and arbitrary exercise of power with which the former contributors are raising concerns.
One wonders if a precedent can be set for getting an HN story of potential wrongdoing buried by hiding or destroying reports or evidence of it.
