Personal opinion: Nathan seems to be really side-stepping a lot of concerns brought of up in the comments there. And referring to people coming together collectively in an open-letter when virtually all other channels are closed as 'brigading' is... Not cool. Edit: he retracted the use of brigading.

EDIT 2: Nate has since closed the comments on his blog, and the one discussion thread on KDE Discuss about the AI Policy was closed suddenly without explanation after a KDE developer began to discuss the ethics of AI use. Nate then responded after the thread was closed with this:

KDE right now has a very reasonable position, but of course being utilitarian and reasonable wouldn't be ever enough for purists that will be throwing shit on the project regardless of what policy will be accepted in the end (OP is already doing it, some other people on fedi as well).

    By your account I guess Cheaters in college should have used the defense of professors that caught them as "purists" ... Get the FO of here with that.

    You misunderstood your relationship with kde, they aren't your student, nor they are accountable or obligated to you in any way. This purity testing thing is dumb and achieves nothing but drama.
