Yes of course, that's their decision.
What I'm talking about that you can't expect the same contributors to a critical part of infrastructure as to a, well, more or less useless terminal emulator.
You can't do the 45327th copy of something (yes, yes, I get it, it's in Rust) and behave like your project is the Linux kernel or the Rust compiler.
- whimsicalism 5y agoUh, kinda feel like you can do anything you want for a project you maintain.

But decisions like > This _should_ be exactly the type of project where people can get their first OSS programming is up to maintainers, not up to random people not running this projects

A terminal emulator is probably one of the most-used apps for a lot of devs. Plus, "useless things" can become great in time with a relentless focus on quality, understanding what their users need, and a vision for both the product and the implementation. There was a time when Linux wasn't regarded as a "real" OS, too. Be careful of slamming unpopular projects for being unpopular. It's not a good look.
