    I’m so out of the loop here. Never heard of him before. A quick web search yielded little. But his seemingly-abandoned Twitter profile is…something. https://nitter.net/bryanlunduke

    I used to say controversial things that I don’t really believe to try and get attention. Now I’ve changed. Black Lives Matter. He / Him

    🤷

    What’s his deal?

      Oh he’s very active: conservativenerds.locals.com

      He was one of the founding members of Jupiter Broadcasting. Was heavily involved in openSUSE for a long time (maybe even on the board?) and did a lot of Linux journalism. If you’ve ever seen the annual tongue in cheek “Linux sucks” video, that is him.

      It’s a huge shame. He’s very charismatic and likeable otherwise, I just wish he also wasn’t carrying around awful opinions about so many other people.
