Basically, the money is running low, and Cassidy decided he’d rather go get a full-time job elsewhere than stay in the situation. Danielle believed that meant that the company would be able to buy the shares Cassidy held back from Cassidy. Cassidy didn’t believe that’s how it should be; he wanted to keep his shares. Danielle didn’t like that, so the two parties proceeded to argue about it (which Danielle would subsequently take to Twitter).
Thanks for the summary. I don’t think a project like that will just die because it has many backers and fans. Hopefully. Although I don’t use it nor do I like it, I don’t want to see it gone.
I also would advise to be very vigilant with anything that Lunduke says though, since he is very bias and disrespectful to people with different ideals.
I only linked a Lunduke article because it included all of the tweets and was easy to find quickly, and his editorial on it was limited and avoidable while still getting the main information.

At this point lawyers are involved.
When a distro is company backed and the company is eating itself, it’s probably time to move on.
