I have met both DHH and Tobi in person several times, and although I don’t know them well they have always been warm, kind, and pleasant to be around. Their contributions to the engineering community have been almost immeasurable. So what you disagree with them personally. Who cares? Do you like ruby? Do you like rails? Are you able to build a career doing something you love? Is that not enough?
If you disagree with things he’s done with Rails that’s one thing. But I would strongly suggest you reconsider the notion that he should be removed from leadership on Rails because of all his personal beliefs.
He’s writing a web framework man (along with thousands of other people who may or not agree with him), he’s not directing your personal life. You should strongly reconsider this blog post. One day, the same sort of ire you’re pointing at him will be pointed at you for no reason other than people disagree with you.
