I'm really not impressed to see some accounts with a large follower count rant against open source projects largely built by volunteers.

Dragging volunteers in the mud and making false assumptions about projects and their dynamics is immature and harmful.

Let's all remember that most open source projects suffer from chronic underfunding and understaffing.

Normalise kindness and encouragement. We're all small, trying to build a bigger something.

@thibaultamartin I do not code, and I have tried. So I do my best to support y'all and give good feedback, report bugs, etc.

The real issue to me is the idea that all transactions between individuals are market based, and free/oss doesn't fit neatly one to one in this mold.

People also need to read Eric S Raymond's "How To Ask Questions."

And no, I don't care if people don't like his politics, he's always been good on the software side.
