Lately we've been hearing many stories like this one, and I got motivated to write up a few guidelines on how people should conduct themselves when talking to others in the FOSS ecosystem. I was going to put it up on https://www.osscoc.com/ https://www.osscoc.com/, but I got writer's block shortly after.
If people could detail their issues here, so I could write something up, that would help. The plan is to have a text that basically says "remember, everyone here is a volunteer, be nice to each other, nobody is obliged to work for you, etc" so it can easily be linked from discussions to remind people to be civil.
- kingosticks 7y agoI'm not saying there's anything wrong with your initiative, or that it wouldn't generally help, but I don't see where people's conduct or communication had a part to play in this particular story. Did I miss something?
- StavrosK 7y agoNo, that's why I commented, the author wasn't very particular about the burnout, so I wanted to know if it had something to do with the previous stories we heard.
- kingosticks 7y agoAhh I follow you now. It read like "here" was here on this HN comment page.
