No I did not supported it. The coup was organized by a religious cult who infiltrated army, they were true believers and zealots, I rather have pragmatist authoratarian Erdo with his swiss bank accounts over turkish version of khomeini and his basij.
Basically since 1980s a particular religious cult start to infiltrate the army, they were organized in a cell like structure, very secretive too, they stole exam answers, created false evidence to imprison people they didn't like, favored one another to rise through ranks. Erdogan being the pragmatist he is made an allaince with them, since they also infiltrated other government boides too, particularly police force and judiciary alongside army.
do you recall my post about how EU congratulated Erdo for taking over judiciary? he took over through this religious cultists support, religious cultists judges/prosecuters gained immense power afterwards. They start to imprison anyone who talk against them. Two particular journalist who wrote about this organization published a book and was imprisoned.

in anycase, Erdo won, most religious cultists fled to europe/usa.
