- Player swapped Apple for callo
- People got angry about that and called out Player
- Player responded by silencing people
- People went crazy shit about silencing and started telling Player all his flaws to the face
- Player went on a power trip and used the nuclear option: ban and mute 30+ people, he removed several hundreds of messages and managed to kick out of the team several big Fabric and Yarn contributors
- modmuss left Fabric for a while
- people are now actually preparing a Fabric fork with better and well defined governance a drop in replacement with decent governance at first, better tech afterwards
- Main Fabric dev is extremely stressed out
- Many big contributors have defected or are gone
- Nearly all Fabric discord moderators have resigned
- Player now does a large batch of things that were done by modmuss and other contributors
- Fallout is still being discussed in MCDrama, for 30 hours now
If the fork (named QuiltMC) takes off, Modrinth (and likely CurseForge too) would switch to that
#wtfabric in here contains the evidence of the incident https://discord.gg/vcZesJr
you can also join this server, it is formed by the defected Fabric moderators https://discord.gg/X4YYb96Aj5
I also recommend joining TeamAOF for casual Fabric usage, modding and modpack playing https://discord.gg/6rkdm48
TeamAOF and Modrinth have strict drama free policies no discussion, ideally no suggestion of drama either good idea would be to ask if it is appropriate to discuss drama in any given server Several servers have dedicated channels for that
