From documentation that library called 'emoji' is limited by some underlying library is not clear. This guy asked to update readme with that. And I really do not feel entitlement or rude tone from there. Perhaps I have different sensitivity level.
Anyway some people spend years working for free, receive death threads, are harassed by governments, have to move to different continent.... All because working on OS. And this is suppose to be THE reason why people burn out?
- sehr 12y agoThis gem exposes the Phantom Open Emoji library unicode/image assets and APIs for working with them. Second line of the the readme
- Xylakant 12y agoYes, the fact that a vocal chunk of opensource users expose an attitude that could be summed up as "you wrote this tool I'm using, you're obliged to fix all my issues with it" is a constant strain on open source contributors. It's certainly not as bad as death threats, but it's still a problem and it's one that needs to be called out. People need to be aware that something was given to them and that they need to give back in return if they want to preserve what was given. I, personally, think that a humbly written bug report is sufficient in terms of giving, but courtesy towards the author/maintainer should always be included in a bug report. I try to add PRs when I can, but I obviously can't in all cases.
- EdwardDiego 12y ago> I really do not feel entitlement or rude tone from there You don't? > I like your gem otherwise, but it's called "emoji", implying that it's the Ruby library for handling those characters. The facts that it only handles some of them, and that you already knew about this issue but didn't tell us is bad form and frankly rude to your users.
