Drew DeVault publicly defends freedesktop.org's decision to ban Hyprland maintainer Vaxry, citing a pattern of toxic behavior, hate speech, and harassment within the Hyprland community. DeVault recounts over a year of private attempts to address Vaxry's conduct, details the email exchanges that led to the ban, and argues that Vaxry's hostile response to FDO's warning — including threatening legal action and doxxing the FDO officer — fully justified the enforcement action. DeVault condemns the harassment directed at the FDO officer and calls on Vaxry to change course before further consequences follow.
