"Doesn't" doesn't mean "can't". Someone just needs to do the work (with no thanks or pay expected).
edit: the perspective of open source projects has really changed in the last 10 years, from collaboration to nice personal projects now being referred to as "the product".
- xp84 6mo agoI apologize if that’s how my tone has come across. I think I just got distracted by the comparison. I think it’s very cool as a project.

- nomel 6mo agoSure, but the context changes who "someone" can be. In this case, it's a personal open source project with pull requests open, where that "someone" means "anyone". We can implement the feature if we want, and for our efforts, we must expect as much in return as the original author received: nothing. Open source used to be abut collaboration, now it's mostly abuse. If you want to add a feature to GitHub, that "someone" would neccesarily be a paid employee.
