It's not 2020 anymore, you don't have to crucify the guy for all time. Let it go.

  Agreed, Replit's CEO apologized for that lawsuit threat incident too. Well worth reading if you read the root comment's complaint. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27429234 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27429234

    Not quite so simple. I recall him doubling down on his position over and over on Twitter until he was getting so torn apart that he abruptly changed course and posted the apologies. It wasn’t until he was realized it was bad for business that he started backtracking and posting a different story.

        Customers of Replit may like to know the history of the CEO attempting to sue open source projects.

        Not people's closets. Openly something this company did. You're implying this is some personal matter that isn't relevant.

      That seems to be a pretty normal state of affairs. Have you found "getting torn apart" to be a reliable way of changing a mind?
