Ironically, I toned down my enthusiasm for this author's (many) projects after my initial perusing led me to something interesting[0] that didn't work, and the subsequent issues and minor (but linked to issues!) PRs I contributed went completely without response for the last few years. They're still open.
To be clear, I'm grateful for the work the author is freely providing for me and the world! And I could certainly do a better job with some of the projects I help maintain as well. He's under no obligation to respond to issues if he doesn't have time or just doesn't want to. But it does speak to how difficult it can be to maintain over a hundred projects, even if you have a system.

- simonw 4y agoThat is 100% fair criticism. I'm definitely not as on top of issues and PRs across the long tail of my projects as I would like to be. I've decided that learning to live with that is the price I have to pay for running with way too many projects!
