      @JulianNorton @cherthedev You actually nailed it: There was no explicit ask. It wasn’t an aggressive “take that down,” but rather a passive aggressive “you posting that hurt my feelings” with the implication that he was most upset *because she has a lot of industry respect and followers*. 1/?

    @JulianNorton @cherthedev And what was particularly problematic is that he chose to get into his feelings publicly rather than privately. He has a similarly large following specifically because of the product/approach he created which was at the center of this. 2/?

      @JulianNorton @cherthedev So he is at once chastising her for linking a piece that was critical of his product to her large follower count while simultaneously informing his large follower account (most of whom I’d wager follow him because of said product) of her “transgression.” A pile-on was inevitable.
