Dragoneer and FA
a year ago
I didn't really know Dragoneer that well, other than he seems pretty cool and that this extremely unfair to everyone involved that it even happened in the first place and I am sorry for FA, his family, and everyone else's loss.
But I'm mostly making this to say I've seen a decent amount of people spreading around concerns that FA might die because of this. And like... I can get being concerned but please at the very least let people grieve before doom posting about how the site will die and how people need to archive and download everything. Even with this horrible circumstance the site should at the very least last quite while, absolute bare minimum until the end of the year. (Though It'll almost certainly last longer than that) And if it ever does start to go down it will almost certainly alert users and it won't suddenly pop out of existence.
This isn't meant to throw shade or anything at those possibly posting about this either. I can understand the concern and worry about it. But again just try to let people grieve for their friend and not just dump all this worry on people while they are grieving please.
