Isn’t this the guy who got called out for trying to use social media brigading to force Linux kernel rust patches through? There’s a good chance those stalkers are fictional.
If you are replying with “isn’t this the guy” it means you didn’t bother to read the post, which also removes the merits of you questioning if what he is claiming is fiction or not.
But people on HN provided context and it indeed seem he was stalked and harassed, but through his VTuber persona and there was even a GDocs document with the details.
It’s never been confirmed that they are the same person, and they both operate as if they are completely separate people. Lina goes by she/her on stream as well.
Wtf is wrong with these people?

The very same, yes.

Edit: His VTuber persona is Asahi Lina
Slightly OT but I always thought Asahi Lina was a woman. TIL.
