"Banned" used to mean "you're done". Now every little time-out is a "ban". Can we use words correctly instead of lying for clicks?

Right? I'm so confused about what happened with this word.

Some people got muted in Brighter Shores and people were calling them bans... Like, no... They're not banned, they're just muted.

Once again video games fucked us over.

More like being put in the proverbial time-out box than being banned. It's for one specific release cycle.

Its perfectly ok to write that kind of email, most of us probably have done so. The critical thing is to not SEND that email....

Temporary bad, and old news.

Imo the bcachefs drama is the fault of those who let the definitely not ready file system into the kernel builds. The developer is just making a file system and major updates that break stuff are to be expected on the current stage of development.
