I just searched, there's no result on the word fuck, someone got butthurt because their free work for apple didn't pay off.
The signal guy responds with a perfectly reasonable explaination, including explaining what a bug is, and why support of a new platform is indeed a feature.
- Arnt 5y agoSo I flagged for editorialised title. Sigh.
- dusted 5y agoI didn't flag either, I just don't think the people in the thread has a valid point. It's entirely up to signal which platforms to add support for, and when to do it, and having whatevertheapp on your platform is a privilege, not a right, even if you make a patch for it.
- mthld 5y agoEnglish isn't my mother tongue, I thought the expression was appropriate but reading your comments I realised maybe not. Update the title accordingly.
- Arnt 5y agoThat's good of you. Unflagged by me, then, but still apparently flagged by someone else. Fuck off is a rather rude response, not suitable for use in writing in many professional contexts. It's the kind of wording you shouldn't put in other people's mouths.
- mthld 5y agoThanks for the detailed explanation, I better understand now and indeed it has no place here.
- samspenc 5y agoYeah I was confused when I opened up the link as well. This is basically a meta-bug complaining about why the original bug was closed: https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Desktop/issues/4461 https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Desktop/issues/4461 But as the other comments here point out, it's a perfectly reasonable response from Signal's part.
