The guy on Calibre has had many hot takes since forever. The most amusing one was the idea of forking Python 2 instead of migrating to Python 3.
Counterproductive idea, sure, but I feel that forking python 2 is at least more in line with open source principles. Incorporating the CSAM machines into Calibre is bad in every way.
