Really interesting to read the discussion here. There’s some solid and cogent push back from informed Bitcoiners. But ultimately, it seems that people voted based on their prior beliefs.
If you scroll through the actual votes, almost every vote in favour of ending Bitcoin support cites the environmental concern. So, still the biggest FUD then.
I really value Wikipedia, and have donated monthly to them for years (via recurring debit card payment). Just cancelled that, and did a full year donation via their Bitpay. Will continue to value Wikipedia but will have to stop donating once they actually remove Bitcoin support.
