    For personal reasons, I no longer feel safe working on Linux GPU drivers or the Linux graphics ecosystem. I’ve paused work on Apple GPU drivers indefinitely.

    If you think you know what happened or the context, you probably don’t. Please don’t make assumptions. Thank you.

    I’m safe physically, but I’ll be taking some time off in general to focus on my health.

      i know it’s wrong to make assumptions, but it seems that, on top of all that rust/c war, her partner was undergoing some serious problems. it seems that she chose to prioritize her personal life and assessed that developing those drivers wasn’t worth all the harassment in this situation.
