Opinion about Techlore and The Hated One (lemmy.ml)

Hello everyone. I've decided to write this post about Techlore and The Hated One because I'm confused. So there was the big GrapheneOS drama there with Techlore and stuff... Under the video many people commented that Techlore is just influencing fans and etc. The Hated One recently made a video of Signal. He said, that Signal server did not get a source code update since 2020. He was wrong. It did, this year February. I'm getting really confused about if they lie to all of us on privacy, and if this is a real concern. I want to hear your opinion on this!

The signal server thing is true, you can check the Github commit history to verify.

With Techlore, him and Graphene have matrix communities and Graphene has an extremely toxic community that goes into Techlore a lot to cause drama. Not to mention the Graphene creator attacks various people all the time, obviously including Techlore. You can see Techlore's video for examples.

I'm not sure what you mean by they're influencing fans. Virtually all communication is influencing others. Techlore has no motivation to bad talk Graphene for no reason, as they have no competition. He's a YouTuber, and they're a free android OS.
