Yes those ones are good examples. I know it’s bearing for a LDK user to deal with dramas between open-source devs and contributors, though note at the end of the days the people are partaking in the decision process affecting your stack of satoshis.
There is really a lack of maturity of the bitcoin development stage w.r.t conflicts of interests, ethics and formalized conflicts of resolution. No one is specifically to blame for the state of things, though not the first time there are cases of blatant cancel in the community.
communicating over text or email is always hard because it can be interpreted in way not intended.
yet it reads like you do want to resolve this with them.
hope you can. I like your point about needing to be a strong or aligned project for the time when strong adversaries come.

this. for open-source projects dealing directly with people’s money being strong and have a community of devs and contributors aligned is a must, not a nice to have. we’re living in a post-CSW era.

I appreciate the work you and Spiral have done advancing bitcoin and lightning.

I still appreciate the work of Spiral has done to advance bitcoin and lightning. Though as pointed in the comments just above, current project culture will harm both contributors and interests of the end-users in the future.
