    The healthiest relationships stem from natural friendships because you build up a base of stuff in common and have a lot of trust before you ever make the jump to “do you wanna go out with me?”

    See, that’s where I fucked up. My dumbass texted her at 12AM and asked if she wanted to hang out the next day (She’s usually up around that time, we both goto the gym around 11PM, which is why I thought it was okay). But we had only talked around 4-5 times, each conversation we had was good, but when it comes to texting, I fail miserably there. I think I just got too excited to meet her, and was a bit too forward. I completely messed up. Well, now I know not to do that again at least, lesson learned :(

    Yeah that’s pretty much my setup, don’t know if it’s really strange or not lol









  • I appreciate your response. To provide more context, I sought guidance on two separate occasions regarding when to submit the patch, and each time, I was instructed to wait for a week. The plan was to resume collaboration with Leah in the following week.

    Unexpectedly, the patch got accidentally closed during that period. While my discontent was evident in the IRC logs, I acknowledge that my approach could have been more composed. I do need to better my communication skills and I will try to learn from this.

    Regarding Leah’s comment about being ‘too slow,’ there appears to be a misunderstanding. I followed the guidance to wait for their input during the specified timeframe. The assertion that I don’t deserve credit due to being ‘too slow’ contradicts the circumstances.

    I attempted to discuss my concerns about credit attribution the day before the chat they currently have posted, initially in #libreboot, where I inadvertently posted it before attempting to take it to DMs. Unfortunately, the responses I received felt dismissive. From the outset, I was informed that there are IRC logs of our work together, and I was advised not to make any public posts about this issue. Initially, I had asked in a neutral manner, but as I observed dismissiveness, a sense of frustration arose. This prompted me to seek resolution by sharing my concerns here two days after we had tried to talk this out.

    It’s important to clarify that I only brought up this issue twice this week, not throughout the entire week, as Leah mentioned. Leah stated that I harassed them for a week, which is inaccurate, as I only brought up this issue with them on two occasions. I felt frustrated with the dismissive responses. I believe that the effort I invested deserves a fair evaluation and acknowledgment in the context of the project’s collaboration. Moreover, it’s worth noting that this patch had implications beyond supporting just one board; it contributed to the addition of several desktop boards.




  • Argument on Mastadon:

    https://mas.to/@libreleah/112001644769069823

    Leah posted the IRC chat logs, claiming that I was harassing them, when I was really just frustrated:

    https://av.vimuser.org/lorenzo.txt

    The only credits I received was for ‘Provided testing hardware’, when I did a lot more than just that, I actually added support for this board and added it into lbmk myself. Leah is claiming that I was only just a tester and not a developer. I was told to wait for weeks and then had my patch closed off ‘accidently’, where Leah would then add it themselves. They’re refusing to accept the patch where I fixed these issue. They made me wait a week, and for them to say I was ‘too slow’ contradicts this whole argument I’m having with them.
