> Kovid was able to quickly implement

Is this new account actually Kovid?

Context: “aumerle” had posted only about Kitty for years as though impartial. And talked about Kovid as if they were a different person. Turns out “aumerle” is Kovid and got banned. He was trash-talking ghostty and advertising Kitty in every ghostty thread. (He does the same using “aumerlex” on reddit, but nobody has called him out on there yet.)

I’m suspicious here because Kovid spent hours trying to force me to admit that he writes code faster than Mitchell XD https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42567224 (you’ll need “showdead” enabled, all of Kovid’s comments got flagged to death).
