You should fork it if you're doing development work like Apple, Intel, AMD, Nvidia, etc because that's how open source works, but it's not necessary if you're using the tooling as-is.
It might be helpful to consider how other people will read your comments before getting defensive next time. It wasn't until I looked at your links that I understood what you were trying to say because it's not the meaning most people are going to assume.

- messe 1y agoWhy even bother contributing to the discussion at all then?
- self_awareness 1y agoHe tried, but people weren't interested in reading his contributions. It's hard to expect people to force contribute something to a collective which is simply not interested.
- throw10920 1y agoNo, he did not try. As he said himself: > i'm not really worried about how my comments are interpreted That literally means that no serious attempt is being made at communicating. And given the voting on your comment, most other readers understand that, too. It's kind of part of the shared fabric of social expectations.
- self_awareness 1y agoIt was after the initial comment was downvoted. Downvoting without asking for rationale was the reason he stopped worrying about comment votes, not the other way around. The fact that lots of people are doing some thing, doesn't make this thing right. After all, "I did it because the other guy did it" is an excuse for children.
