I don’t see either of those as particularly hateful. He’s got strong opinions, yes, and you’re certainly free to disregard his posts for whatever reasons you’d like, but they don’t strike me as obviously derogatory or repulsive. He makes good points in both - electron is great in some ways, but terrible in others, and dependency management with npm/node is, charitably, problematic.

Now contrast with what he complains about in this blogpost: > SourceHut’s email-oriented approach might not be for everyone, and instead of simply not using it, skeptics must harass any projects that do. His blogpost on electron was fueling this exact brand of hate.
- 1MachineElf 4y agoTo his credit, the blog post about electron was made on his own platform. It's not like he went out of his way to spread Electron developers on public forums. You can never achieve on a personal blog the vitriol Twitter, etc. can bear.
- xoxoxoxox 4y agoI'd call your summarization of his takes more even-handed than the source material. I suspect, though, that his post wouldn't have gotten the traffic it did were all of it easy to nod along with.
