Mmh, you definitely misremember that

> As much as I’d like this change to happen, it’s too soon. This change would kill off projects like Bazzite entirely right as Fedora is starting to make major headway in the gaming space.

> I’m speaking as it’s founder, if this change is actually made as it is written the best option for us is to just go ahead and disband the project.

Now, whenever you would've actually shut down the project is a different story, but your messaging was very clear.

What is the point of this line of questioning? They stated that the proposal as-written would make maintaining projects like Bazzite untenable. That's a valid thing to say and not that much of a "threat", but even if it were, most people involved here is effectively unpaid and can do whatever they want with their time.

The messaging was very clear that the upstream change would make Bazzite almost untenable.

It was a criticism of Fedora, not a threat to quit.

For those of us who aren’t seeing the threat as clearly as you are, are you possibly misinterpreting things?

I don’t interpret “an upstream change would make this project impossible to maintain” as a “threat”.

No that appears to be directly in line with what I said. What's missing here is your understanding of a proposal vs an actual change Fedora is going to make.

Mmh, you definitely like to cause drama by putting words in someone's mouth
