> “Today I learned that we have a sustainability team,” Mullenweg said.

If this is true: Is there any possible explanation for such a statement where leadership comes out unscathed?

It looks like it was originally just a channel on Slack, that eventually evolved into a “team” without Mullenweg paying much attention to it.

The Sustainability agenda , quoted by the article, appears excessive to me as well - and it resonates with me why Mullenweg is asking for a different approach.

With the dramas going on, shutting down the channel was a dick move , though.

This still reflects badly on the leader:

- Stuff going on you're not aware of?

- Things spiraling out of control/becoming self-directed?

- You forgetting what you did or said a few months/years ago, and getting mad on others in consequence?

- Your intentions not well understood?

All of this is on you (the leader). That's reason for resignation.

The behavior around it is just childish IMO. I wonder how this affects him being able to do his job.

He himself clearly showed it's a lie as he admitted on Threads that he started said team. Utterly bizarre.

It's not true. It's a blatant lie, as the embedded video in the article proves.
