Now don't get me wrong, we might never know, but I know that from here on out we shouldn't trust anyone who is spinning his legacy in any direction. And Reddit is doing exactly that currently. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] thisisnotgoingwell@programming.dev -1 points 3 years ago Aaron referred to himself as a founding partner, and in a reddit AMA, he was asked why he called himself a founder, and he explained how the two companies were merged together and he became a founding partner. He offered Steve Huffman to stop referring to himself as a founding partner at Steve's request. Steve never challenged Aaron's claim while he was alive. permalink fedilink source parent
