That thing about kloeri (aka Bryan Østergaard, of Freenode / Gentoo fame) appears to have been an elaborate hoax planned as early as 2016. (I will delete my tweet to avoid propagating it.)
Hey Pierre, do you have a link to info on how this is a hoax? I asked @freenodestaff and haven’t received a response.

The account that added his "blog post" to Encyclopedia Dramatica in 2016 used his name but referred to him in the 3rd person too. https://encyclopediadramatica.rs/index.php?title=Kloeri&action=history …

The (real) Østergaard appears to be active recently elsewhere (https://tickets.puppetlabs.com/browse/SERVER-2242 …), maybe unaware of all this?

... meanwhile a new post has appeared on the blog :/
