That line right there killed any chance of me downloading or trying this. His first three paragraphs cover how he dislikes Sublime Text for some decently noble reasons. Then the first FAQ is about how he is no different. In fact, probably even worse. The idea that he will only work on things 'only he cares about' says this:
Unless I'm you, I wont care about your project either.
- bronson 13y agoExcept that there's one major difference that you're ignoring. Source code is available. So, if you feel like it, go nuts. And if not, don't. The project is at an early stage so what is there to complain about?
- mjs7231 13y agoI am only trying to help because I like the idea of this project. However, it's the "Patches Welcome" attitude of devs that kills projects. Honestly, after reading this thread and the attitude portrayed, I suspect this project will die with only a handful of users and no maintenance before everyone resorts back to Sublime Text. -- Maybe he doesn't want an active community of users using his software, which is fine. But then why post it on HN?
