Running a community has never been easy, and even when you find someone who is good at it, it takes a toll.
Nobody can do it alone, and nobody can do it forever.
I remember a moment, years ago. Jack Dorsey was still running Twitter and involved in yet another scandal about whether nazi shit was gonna be tolerated there, and he was equivocating and bullshitting about free speech or somesuch.
And around the same time, someone else dropped some justification for tolerating nazi shit to Eugen, and he just said something along the lines of: no, we don't do that here.
Eugen earned my respect that day.
