Just like the author of actix-web decides to exit from his popular Rust open source project recently(https://github.com/actix/actix-web https://github.com/actix/actix-web). As a maintainer of large open source project is not a fun task. whatever mental or physical, it's really a hard job.
Respent for every maintainer and contributor, it's not easy. You can read some issues in the repository, the authors of some issues are just complaining or criticizing the idea or bug, it's unfair and rude. in the end, hurt maintainer's passions. Every developer should know it and respect it like the README or guideline before posting issues or comments.
It's a fantastic post about the analysis of OSS maintainer, Respect for Mr. Gallant.
