I Found a “Case Study” About My Open-Source Project — But Its Development History Didn't Match Reality

说明与用途

作者发现一篇错误描述PasteDB开发历史和技术栈的文章。他将文章主张与实际GitHub仓库进行对比，记录差异，尝试联系网站所有者，并向托管方提交滥用报告。随后他分享了保持准确文档和仓库历史的重要经验。

问题

An article claimed PasteDB used Flask, React, PostgreSQL, and Heroku, and described a development process that did not match the actual repository history.

结果

The author clarified the true development history, preserved evidence, and initiated a formal report to correct misinformation.

工作流
