I know Daniel somewhat from some years back, and calling him extremely toxic is just wrong. He is and has always been rather bad at communication under stress and is clearly on the spectrum in some way. Technically a genius person, but perhaps doesn’t have the right set of qualities to lead things, except from a strictly technical pov.
Very good decision from him to withdraw from social media. I hope he manages to contribute in the future.
Lead dev of grapheneos is extremely toxic in communication. I don’t trust someone like that developing the software running on a phone.
Do you have some examples?
Louis Rossman’s video describes his behavior in public spaces accurately: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4To-F6W1NT0
Thank you, this is really toxic
might be toxic, but the os is brilliant

This is not an excuse to behave the way he does.
He hasn’t, still on github, still on HN.
