    ROFL. Kiddo, I’ve been contributing to OSS for over two decades. The day I start caring about what non-contributors think is the day I stop writing code. Either show up with patches or STFU.

        You’re both being silly. Ones a gatekeeper, ones a name caller

          Definitely silly but im tired of trying to explain something especially when they act like that and I know they arent going to listen. They can simply get name called. People dont like that but its simply not my obligation.

          Nobody is gatekeeping. One of us is asserting that there’s no such thing as a free lunch.

          The features being requested do not come for free. Someone has to sink the time into doing the work.

          So, in an argument between people doing the work and people insisting someone else do the work for them, but it must be to the specifications of the armchair quarterbacks… well… I’ve got bad news about the things the non-paying non-coders want.

          You can either pay money or pay time, but nobody cares about the freeloaders demanding things without offering any kind of compensation.

          We really gonna pretend the name caller is as bad as the guy with the opinion that “critics are useless and should just learn how to do the thing the critique”? Cuz that’s a classic shitty opinion
