Everybody was embarrassed about that day. It was a lot of toxicity over an issue that had already been resolved in technical terms, and dragged on for hours, but Andreas was mostly gracious throughout. I give him a lot of credit for being willing to trade blows with aggressive users without using Linus-style shame tactics himself. However there is also some recognition of how disruptive it is to allow discussion to spiral out of control like that. The channel is considering a more policy-driven approach to handling these kinds of situations. It has never banned anyone in its history to date, but it may have to cross that bridge soon.
