Then stop blocking a move to Gitlab based on false concerns of paranoia.
Using a mailing list is like using a fax machine or BBS. It's no surprise
we have no young blood.

On Twitter/X I see weekly complaints from people about our antiquated patch
review process.

Has it ever occured to you that if someone disagrees with you they are not
"attacks"? There are plenty of new ideas and it's only you and a few others
that talk repeatedly about ancient history. It's as if this current setup
is highly convenient for you...
