I certainly agree that there some Open source projects that are extremely toxic, like the Linux Kernal, but I wish people wouldn't say all open source is that way. The author has been through a lot of crazy shit for very silly reasons, note I'm not blaming him in any way - no one should go through that over volunteering free work. But I've contributed to Django, Flask, Python, Meotor, and Node.js in different ways and though it's varied in how pleasant the experience has been for the most part these communities were really awesome, when dealing with the core teams. I think those are good examples of better open source communities and I think they will tend to pick up more developers that aren't willing to put up with all of the crap involved in the Linux project.
