Out of touch, as always

[edit]

The WMF spouts this corporate nonsense but I'm glad Signpost mirrors it here so it can be openly criticized, unlike what happens in WMF-run spaces. I would hope WMF would build the capacity to be honest for once, and stop running the scary fundraising pitches every Christmas season, or perhaps recognize that they are not a grant-making tech company. WMF talks about motivations, but they block our admins out of process, ignore the community's complaints, and they can't even be bothered to thank contributors once a year. I think the home office ought to really think about how money has corrupted each and every one of them. Chris Troutman (talk) 17:13, 30 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
