It’s also available here. They’re trying to suppress this. http://gofile.me/6g3JG/oTY79Vk3b

I appealed the YouTube takedown but I also uploaded the video to the internet archive. https://archive.org/details/gmt-20250917-160422-recording-640x-360

Meeting between Ruby Central and RubyGems maintainers right before Ruby Central seized control.

@hejsna yep, but they won’t say why. André seems like a decent person to me. But even if he was an ass, that wouldn’t justify how they’re treating him.

@rgarner I think Marty is actually a decent person and I don’t think it was him. Unlike others, he hasn’t defended Ruby Central’s actions.

@rgarner Seriously. You should hear the other stuff Ruby Central are doing to suppress dissent.

E Corp had the video that proved Ruby Central was full of shit taken down from YouTube. Here’s another link (not mine) that still seems to be available. http://gofile.me/6g3JG/oTY79Vk3b

@remi how is this related? I’m not talking about a political difference. I’m talking about theft.

@Schneems Appreciate this. I want to be held accountable in the same way.

Not sure if I understand the difference between calling in and calling out as you’ve put it.

But I am very comfortable being someone who *calls to attention* injustice, bullying and misleading information. Joel “this is bs” Drapper is who I am. Not ashamed of that.

I won’t tolerate bullying or covering for bullies. Full stop.
