As the title suggests, over the last couple of days there’s been an influx of doomer comments over the SKG petition. While it’s fine to disagree, I’m finding it suspicious that there weren’t comments like this posted a week or 2 ago

    Perhaps, which I think is really unfortunate.

    I’m not concerned with it. I’ve looked into it a bit, and it seems like PirateSoftware ruined his own reputation. It just took his very visible cockup in that WoW raid for people to realize that he lies a lot and refuses to acknowledge when he’s wrong.

    I think he misread or misunderstood what the petition was about

    Possibly. I’m not going to speculate on that because it’s not really important.

    But he’s not going to be making a bunch of accounts on random message boards like Lemmy to try to kill it.

    I doubt it as well. I’m more suspicious of corporate astroturfing. And Lemmy isn’t too small of a target for it, since astroturfing is pretty cheap.
