🚨 **BREAKING NEWS** 📣
The creator of the most popular #OpenSource #Rails application as measured by GitHub stars (Mastodon), none other than @Gargron himself, has signed the “Plan Vert” open letter calling for Rails Core and the #Ruby community to cut ties with DHH.
The symbolic importance of this act *cannot* be overstated. This is HUGE. Mastodon is approaching Rails itself in stars with 49.1k vs. 57.6k.

The good news is all their blustering and peacocking is in fact a sign that the critics are getting under their skin. They simply are unable to ignore us, so they mock and jeer us.
Keep it up folks! Nothing bothers them more than the truth.

Stay classy!

in reply to Jared White (ResistanceNet ✊) • • •The “Plan Vert” open letter to request that #Ruby on #Rails disassociate from DHH is only 7 signatures away from reaching 100.
It includes a former Rails core member, Eugen Rochko creator of Mastodon, Aaron Sumner of Everyday Rails, Ryan Bigg author of many Rails books, Lucas Dohmen author of “The Rails Way” series, Peter Boling maintainer of OAuth gems, Denis Defreyne creator of nanoc, and many others.
This is a significant milestone!
