Afaik rubygems kicked some long term contributors and stole the entire project. Thats some serious red flags for me. At what point rubyruby gems does something nasty is only a matter of time. They could start to gatekeep or even worse add some sort of paid version.
Anyway.. a core piece of infra like this needs to be open for anyone and not closed for some shady entrerprize.

Ruby Central wanted to oust one or two specific maintainers because of a rocky relationship (whether it was warranted or not is not my point).
It later backfired when a majority of the other maintainers resigned.

That's a funny accusation given that's something the ousted maintainers now behind gem.coop wanted to do a while ago.
