@a.very.sleepy.galactic.furball.discatte.com what your post really underscores is that I feel far more exposed to potential doxxing from shady Adafruit’s leadership than I ever would be to anything Qualcomm might do with Arduino policies.

It’s absolutely wild that Adafruit implicitly endorses its leadership doing this. You wouldn’t see Eben Upton or Massimo Banzi do the same.

Looking for US-based #OSHW alternatives to #Adafruit? Here’s where to look:
⚡️ SparkFun – The biggest direct alternative
🤖 Pololu – Best for robotics & motors
📡 Great Scott Gadgets – RF & security tools
🤏 TinyCircuits – Miniature electronics
🛠️ Crowd Supply / Tindie – Indie makers

small domino: kicked an annoying person out of a discord

large domino: adafruit guy scribbling my name on a piece of paper in a warehouse

I will not elaborate any further

wait what's up with adafruit

Jesus. If you ever need a piece of hardware from Adafruit then I strongly suggest purchasing through a 3rd party rather than buying direct from the company.

He's still doing it.

The adafruit guy has now spent several days doxxing and stalking and harassing me online. This time with a clever 'I remember other [similar names]'

He is now just making alternate fediverse accounts to ridicule me.

if they don't work for Adafruit why are they doxxing and harassing people on here over posts about Adafruit? (and were suspended here for that, by the way.)

The managing director of adafruit doxxing customers is certainly a look.

Not the look of a successful company with a future in the community, but a look nonetheless.

It’s absolutely wild that Adafruit implicitly endorses its leadership doing this. You wouldn’t see Eben Upton or Massimo Banzi do the same.

now the adafruit guy is harassing me on fedi with a fresh account accusing me of photoshopping them????

what communities?????

what is going on??????

this guy needs serious help.

Oh, I already stopped buying from Adafruit long ago.

I’m not surprised their trustpilot review is so low and a lot of the posts about customer service reflect my experience.

if you ever wanted a reason to never buy from adafruit again, it would be how they like to doxx people freely after getting their email through a kofi donation

AND THEN DO IT AGAIN when being told not to harass someone else.

anyways, I hate it here. so bye.
