Manton Reece: "I’ve seen some people post about unfollowing Federico or cancelling their Club MacStories memberships. Is that really what we want, to withdraw support from a long-time blogger who has had such a positive impact on the indie Mac and iOS ecosystem?"
Yes. The answer is *yes*.
The people I know who have decent principles (and the spines to stick to them) are not going to lower their standards just because someone is a "long-term blogger". Tenure doesn't offset the harm here.
