WAS: ‘Failgate’
This was a post with more details about our dispute with Failbetter – the company I founded, that I later left on very good terms, and that I eventually got into a nasty beef with. But the beef was resolved amicably in 2023; and besides, now that I reread the original post, I’m embarrassed by the tone, which is the tone of a gleeful, angry, Twitter smack-fight. Even the title.
I don’t want to memory-hole anything, so if you really want to see the original, it’s here: but remember it’s a post written by a man who’d been increasingly angry for three years. There’s a post here that holds up much better, but again, if you read that, remember we managed to sit down with Failbetter and bury the hatchet. Some day maybe I’ll be able to talk more about the details of that, but honestly, my sense is that very few people are interested any more. 🙃
