This may come off as rude ... but tptacek there is a fine line between being enthusiastic and aggressively dickish. All over this thread you have been PUSHING hard... way harder than you should have to if your product is as good as you are touting. It's one thing to promote, but what I've read all over this post (not just this thread) is someone whose personality REFUSES to allow them to even give a small inch in a debate -- feels a drive to be right no matter the cost. That makes me question how likely you are to take input from people who can / want to help ... Friendly advice -- roll yourself back down to an 8 or 9.

WireGuard isn't "my" project. I have no formal relationship with the developer, other than that we like his work so much we've contributed a bit to its development (less than others). You're not being rude. But I have no plans to give an inch on this discussion. If that's problematic for you, you're welcome to use the HN votey-buttons as you see fit.

  Just letting you know that your comments/attitude/etc are likely hurting the cause you are championing. Your volume of replies, the tone you take in them, and the way you react makes it seem like you ARE deeply part of the project... Thus I (and likely many others) associate you with it. I don't care what you comment - be a dick to the fullest if that's your thing - I was simply letting you know the impression you are leaving out there.
