Okay I won't boost that whole thread but you should all read it, click on it.
Honestly LineageOS devs have lost a LOT of respect from me with this shitty shitty SHITTY "April Fool's" joke. Just read it, it's a trainwreck. Only shitty tech bros come up with some shitty idea like this.
Consider your audience, folks. Free software isn't just used by tech folks who a) get this shit and find it funny, and b) wouldn't get anxious over asshole behaviour like this.
