Yep, this tracks. Instead of saying where he stands on LGBTQ+ issues (not Micro.blog, but Manton himself), and in lieu of explaining his decision to retain Vincent Ritter despite his anti-LGBTQ+ record, he opts to hide and hope it all goes away.
Manton always somehow viewed us as “competing”, but I never saw it that way. Micro.blog is a superior blogging tool, period.
But where community is concerned, man, what a trainwreck over there. And it comes from the top.

@adam he's happy to push this aside entirely and just block you. It's a very simple question you've asked and he's seemingly incapable of giving a direct answer on the topic which is really concerning. It seems to be the classic playbook of just avoiding straight answers with distractions or pushback.
