Looks like maintainer going through a tough time, no details of whatever happened but it doesn't look like it was public harassment, wish the best for them.

- jrflowers 2y agoI like how you linked to this: > I have endured a sustained campaign of abuse from members of the VOGONS forum, been labelled a "clout-chaser", had threats sent to my personal email address, code been used in other projects without proper accreditation, my 3D print designs stolen and sold by faceless eBay/Etsy sellers, personal attacks made towards me when people don't get their feature request... the list goes on and on. >There is only so much I can take. >My mental health has been in decline as a direct result of this behavior; the joy of working on this project has pretty much gone. There is nothing to be gained from putting time and hard work into it any more. There is no gratitude, no encouragement - just entitled behavior and grift. And concluded that it is a mystery why he quit.
