Martin has nearly always been like this. Ive known martin from way way way back when he worked on the wii and he has always been a guy that just causes drama by pointing and saying “this is shit. Look at this shit”. It isnt a bad thing to do, but the way he does it is basically going to somebody’s home with a sledgehammer and smashing a wall without checking in. It turns people away from you even if youre right.
He had a beef and drama with me, devkitpro, gbatemp.
Then he stopped being on my radar, heard he was working on asahi, then heard he was causing drama between emulation devs, then luois rossman, and now bloody linus torvalds?
He definitely improved it… but there’s still plenty of material for r/linusrants.
He may not directly call people names anymore but he’s still extremely rude and unprofessional. He would have been fired long ago from any company I work for, and I live in the UK where it’s practically impossible to get fired.

Yeah you only get to do that if you’re Linus 😄
Linus stepped away from the spotlight and apologized and went to therapy and changed his behavior

In the UK you only get employment protections after working at a company for two years. Up until then you can be fired without reason
You only get to do that if you’re the founder and leader of a project. If you join other people’s projects then you play by their rules, not your own.
