The Monero twitter profile has stopped sharing the Revuo written by @rottenwheel in May 2022, after it was pointed out that the author was currently banned from most Monero channels for behaviour such harassment, doxxing of contributors, toxic behaviour and much more. That's why the Revuo was already rejected in #2044. Reiterated toxic behaviour can be seen in #1976 (comment). |

please squash and consider setting a trend for future newsletter pr commit titles "newsletters: add revuo monero". i like how you added your newsletter to the top of the list, this is the confidence we like to see. looking through https://revuo-xmr.com/, i see none of the aforementioned behaviour on display. I see a Monero newsletter running on FOSS: revuo gh repo, with, to-the-point / no fluff informative publications. I have no problem with someone stumbling upon this newsletter after browsing the library page, and welcome more. moving forward, the last issue was in November, and i am aware of a vote(s) circulating to decide if Revuo should continue. can @rottenwheel speak about the feedback received so far? and if Revuo is going to continue? |
I couldn't find toxic behavior from @rottenwheel in your comment or your other claims, also he refuses your claims. Also let's keep the past in past. We don't need drama. |

@plowsof Thanks, it looks like the commit title has been changed to reflect what you suggested: 'newsletters: add revuo monero'. I initially had added Revuo at the top with no premeditated intention of it being listed first. I took the opportunity to have the newsletters listed alphabetically instead, meaning it'd be Monero Observer, Revuo Monero and The Monero Standard. M->R->T. Reddit, Lemmy and Twitter polls all indicate the community may want Revuo to return from its hiatus; however, I have not set a return date yet, my intention is to keep running it. At the end of the day, as hinted in the OP comment, when the site had magazines instead of newsletters, it listed the periodicals Diego 'rehrar' Salazar had published in the past. For the sake of keeping archives of 'official' publications, we should list Revuo regardless of it being active or not. Not only it hosts prior periodicals, it hosts all weekly issues to date. Please advise if more adjustments are needed, otherwise merge as soon as possible. Edit: not to toot my own horn, rather, as a sample of the things I've accomplished since taking Revuo Monero on, along with some of the poll results. These improvements will be available for posterity, should I pass on the baton to someone else, for the benefit of the broad community.

Revert commits - the latest are messed up.
also not sure why the paperwallet generator commits were pulled in - this pr really shouldnt touch them.. (if there are ever any conflicts, rebase and force push instead)
i would say squash, but commits need to be reverted anyway, so i say just redo it and then push all changes in 1 commit (instead of 2).

Just git things (still struggling myself) https://github.com/plowsof/monero-site/tree/newsletters_revuo |

Technically the changes look ok, the PR correctly makes the changes that it claims to do.
As to the claims that the current author of the newletter has a history of conflicts and bans in the Monero community: Well, what do I know. Similarly to @plowsof , I look at this now from the point of view of the readers of the website, and seems to me those are not affected by whatever happened in the past of the author, but they get to read a solid newsletter. Which I can approve.
Considering Revuo Monero was initially started by Diego 'rehrar' Salazar in 2019, has been, historically speaking the one newsletter under the Core Workgroup umbrella while he was their liason, more than 100 issues were shared via the 'official' Twitter profile, @monero, archive is found on LocalMonero's website and overall its good standing of audience and content, I think it is appropriate for Revuo Monero to be named and linked as well, keeping things cohesive.
