conduct expectations are commensurate with your reputation, power and influence. this is why code of conducts have wordings like maintainers are expected to role-model and enforce good conduct

or in other words: you built it, you lead it, you own it. the good parts, and very much also the bad parts

there's no "accidental" when your community goes brigading and harrassing, because it simply doesn't matter whether it happens with intent or due to lack of clue

once more for the peanut gallery

nvidia _choose_ to not support the wayland stack. or well more generally, the new linux kms+egl gpu stack, since there's a lot other cool things you can built on top of it that aren't wayland

nvidia _choose_ to implement crypto locked down fw in a way that blocks open drivers (even apple got this right!). and no one else can fix it, because it's actual real crypto

nvidia _choose_ to not fix any of this

don't buy nvidia if you don't like this
