As someone who has created and maintained open source projects (most recently Willow[0]) for two decades I get a kick out of this.
Of course when interacting with users and feedback I keep it polite but in my head I'm thinking "You like to talk. I actually DID this. Shut up or submit a PR".
Surprise surprise they almost never do.
Keep actually producing and shake the haters off!

- kkielhofner 3y agoTwo prior successful startup exits. I also do consulting and advisory work in adjacent spaces so this is pretty much my lifelong dream - spend my other time just doing open source projects I think are interesting.
