Theo / his fans say he only criticized VLC. But he specifically wrote their codecs were bad. Ffmpeg replied that he should develop/submit some better codecs. Mr. "I built a new web browser" was so hurt by this that he held a vendetta for months, and now want to get them fired.

@oxcrowx I said the codecs were bad because they are 8 years out of date. Lots of custom builds (i.e. the ones in AUR) are recompiled with modern versions. I also love that you included my shitpost about browsers, really showcases that you care more about hating than facts.

@theo You specifically said their codecs were awful, then blamed ffmpeg directly for VLC's release delays (which is probably not under their control). Since they criticized you back you held a personal vendetta, and now are using your followers and money, to get them fired.

@oxcrowx Again, you're bad at reading jokes it seems. They flamed me for not contributing, so I flamed them back. I should not be expected to contribute to ffmpeg, and the random twitter admin should not be expected to update vlc.

@theo @oxcrowx Pretending I'm on your side submitting a patch and getting on the contributor list is the easiest W you could take rn...

@theo @oxcrowx Oh, now that you got humiliated twice, it all was a joke ? Then what was the donation for, if you were joking ? I think you're a clown, and refuse to admit it. And that's ok, neither would I in your situation, but don't come here to lie and make your case worse

@theo @oxcrowx I expect you to contribute to ffmpeg now, if just as penance for the last 24 hours of your bullshit.

@theo @oxcrowx You are so dumb for continuing this show, you just look worse and worse
