That whole story is debatable at best. Here's just some of the things that make you scratch your head and wonder how much of it is really true:

- Author of the fork claiming that he recieved 70+ calls on his pinephone and jokingly said it didn't crash. [1]

- He deletes said tweet moments after someone asked him how anyone might've found his pinephone number despite it not being on his website or social media. [2]

- Then he says he doesn't have any proof becuse he had to wipe/reflash his phone due to his pinephone crashing (this directly contradicts his previous tweet). After being called out, he immediately deleted his HackerNews post. [3]

- The author was posting f-word and r-words on his github bio. [4]

The only answer I have to you: I learned not to give a damn about trolls. Maybe start something useful with your life instead of claiming things that aren't true?

The parent poster provided sources for all of their claims. It’s unclear to me what they said that was untrue. Care to elaborate?
