The #CancelGodotEngine movement keeps growing. We are a team of anonymous individuals that got abused by #GodotEngine leadership, especially @reduzio.
Primary objectives:
- Remove Juan from the position of the lead developer.
- Make Godot community-driven for real.
- Allow criticism in Godot.

Secondary objectives:
- Change Godot icon, if that's what community wants.
- If Rémi won't accept the new leader, then we'll make him leave.
The irony is that neither @reduzio nor @Akien will know about our mission, because they're so preoccupied with recruiting new contributors.

It should be fairly easy for us to get trusted by Godot leadership so it gets dethroned by us.
We are using the definitive guide to achieve our mission. Stay tuned!

Even after quitting the Godot cult, sometimes I still find it difficult to believe that I used to participate in Godot cult in the first place... That's when you know how strong the brainwashing could get.

Godot leadership cannot kill you physically. But if you get indoctrinated by Godot followers and express critical thinking, you'll get emotionally abused: "you should not talk this way", "this is your last warning", "if you keep doing this, you'll be permanently banned".
Threats like above can really fuck up the brains of adolescents, and I suspect that there's a lot of younger people who use Godot at the moment. These kind of threats are disproportionate to the situations that arise at hand. And what for? Make people obedient? At what cost?

@godotengine: A Definitive Guide on How to Become an Excellent #GodotEngine Developer Image
The first thing that you'd need to do is to learn @godotengine, of course. Take some time to learn GDScript, create prototypes, funny projects, and generally experiment with the engine. It should only take you like 2-4 weeks to master the basics of game development with Godot.
Join Godot community channels. I recommend joining Godot's Discord server first. Introduce yourself there. You'll quickly get bombarded with love from Godot moderators and other users there. Tell them that you're new to Godot and say that it's awesome!

Godot is NOT community-driven. Let me explain why.

#GodotEngine #CancelGodotEngine
There exist many definitions of community-led approaches. Because Godot attracts people from all around the world, it's extremely important to be explicit about this.
The lead developer of Godot, Juan (@reduzio), says that he always encourages public technical discussions.

I'm an ex-member of #GodotEngine cult. It's been two months since I have decided to never use Godot ever again in my life. But I have dreams using Godot editor. I have "Godot icon" flashbacks and suddenly wake up! #CancelGodotEngine Image
The reason why I'm writing this to you is that Godotitis that the cult members of Godot joked about is actually really serious!

github.com/godotengine/go…
In order to quit Godot cult, I just had to write the truth in order to get permanently banned from all Godot communities. There are definitely other ways to quit Godot, but depending on severity of your Godotitis, it may not be an easy decision to do.

I'm a #GameDev. After working on @godotengine as a volunteer for 5 years, #IGotOut. With experience, I identified contradictions in Godot's development and governance model, then leadership started to threaten to ban me. @CultExpert may be interested.

Godot leadership removed my privileges to punish me for telling people that decisions in Godot aren't made by community. In email I have received, he even said that I have mental health issues to make me feel guilty and undermine my perception of reality.

The leader of Godot messaged me in private that I must not question the decisions of Godot leadership, forbidding me to quote other members, opinion about governance, and even opinion about myself! Otherwise, it would be an instant ban for me.
