alloyed/Kit stewardship vote Closed Mon 6 Oct 2025 5:00AM

I'm checking for consensus on the following idea:

Adding alloyed/Kit (@alloyed@pleasetf.me) to the stewardship

alloyed/Kit volunteered to become a steward yesterday in Discord (October 1, 2025) and they are being nominated for stewardship on my behalf. they have stepped up within in the Zulip over the past few months (including noting a few deficiencies in how we have information laid out) and they have been on the League since we launched last year. i think this makes them a perfectly good candidate for steward.

they have also provided the following statement to me on why they would like to be a steward, and what they would like to focus on in this role:

ok hi I'm https://pleasetf.me/alloyed and my primary goal is to make it ambiguous about which steward named '@kit' you're talking about at any given time

I was laid off.... so decent amount of free time, and especially given burnout levels among other stewards i want to be around to help, i think.

please ask me to look into documentation, technical issues, or if you just want to foist a boring process/responsibility onto someone else! Not Interested in running a (production) node or moderation duties.

Meta notes

this is our first ever stewardship vote using the post-October 1, 2024 system we agreed to in the early days of the League. to refresh everyone on what that means: this system requires a consensus to add a new person. in other words, one explicit objection on a vote like this is sufficient to not add someone to the stewardship unless the person objecting changes their vote. (i am noting this because we may wish to revisit this as we actually start to use this procedure.)

all Stewards have a right to object to a candidacy for any reason they feel prudent; however, for a vote like this—not related to alloyed specifically, but just as a general rule of thumb since we are now using this procedure—i would hope and encourage people to be a little conservative with what they think justifies an explicit objection. if you have reservations about a candidacy that you also don't think justify killing the nomination entirely, this is what the intermediary option is for.

my rationale is already in the nomination here, but to reiterate they have volunteered for the role and already done a few things, they have a clear sense of what they want to do in the role, and i have no concerns about them as a person.

I don't see why not? Honestly, nothing from me. I think it's pretty clear what they're here to do and I haven't seen anything that would check them out otherwise.

Also, condolences on the lay off. Hope you get some source of money somewhere.

Given that they've actively taken initiative to propose or make improvements to the League on various occasions even before considering applying for this position, and based on what else I've gotten to see of them from various interactions — yeah, I think they'd be suitable!

As an extremely disorganized critter - I absolutely welcome the effort in organizing all the technical information, and I appreciate your desire to contribute. If you ask me, I think it'd be cool to have you, and you're already putting in time and effort to improve things so it just makes sense. Also, if you'd want to at some point, I can try and help fill in the information gaps you might have for Akkoma and related forks, which is where I have at least a little bit of expertise.

I don't know how to respond to the vote after the fact but i see no reason to not include them. They seem eager to step up and I'm glad to have them on board
