> Calling all bug-bounty hunters. We got a whale over here! If you can prevent Theodore Browne from posting on Twitter/X for one month, FFMPEG gets a $21,000 bounty. Support the FFMPEG project in any way you can!

> I think Theo is right in pointing out the bullying on X that the FFMPEG account is doing and actively trying to give incentives to stop it.
