BTW, the reason that all comments on his blog article and other GNOME blogs are positive is simple: comments are moderated and they censor the negative ones.

That is wrong: There is no generic policy to censor blogs.
E.g. on my GNOME blog I only not approve non constructive comments. I don't care if someone is positive or negative. Only if they're constructive (basically: personal insults don't get approved).
So your statement that all blogs are censored is factually wrong.

Well, how do you expect to get constructive criticism when maintainers systematically ignore all outside feedback?
In such a situation, publicly denouncing the incompetence (and sometimes utter folly and idiocy) of the maintainers is the only remaining option, and I guess that's what you consider "personal insults".
