When a project developer steps directly into the CTO role by sidelining the previous holder—claiming it's for 'community interests'—you have to wonder what's really going on. The whole situation reeks of power consolidation dressed up as community governance. A dev taking control of core technical leadership without proper transparency or community consensus? That's not community-first decision-making, that's just consolidating power under a different banner. The irony is pretty thick here.

A typical "for the community" trick, who would believe it...

This is another good show. The developer directly becomes CTO. The so-called grandeur is actually a transfer of power. I see this trend is similar to a head and shoulders top pattern—appearing stable but actually a fake-out. Dangerous signals have already appeared.

actually, let's break this down through the lens of incentive structures—when devs invoke "community interests" while quietly shuffling leadership, you're basically watching governance theater masquerading as decentralization. the irony is *chef's kiss* honestly.
