Got death threats because I wasn't prioritizing stuff people were requesting, said nah I'm done

I open sourced a portable benchmark program and was getting angry responses because I wouldn't accept changes to make it Linux-specific.

Just tell them to fork it. Done. No need to take any grief you do not want.

[crinkly]

Lovely people no?

I had death threats once for raising a github issue!

[zote]

were you working on an emulator perchance?

[duxup]

I've only recently had exposure to just a bit of the emulator world. Even the nice people aren't nice. No idea what the story is there but wow.

[throwaway889900]

Nope.

I literally had someone tell me that I’m a coward and a psychopath because I didn’t prioritize solving their problem: https://github.com/devnoname120/vhbb/issues/75#issuecomment-...

I don’t regret open-sourcing this project but god as your project becomes popular bad apples start joining and ruining the party for everyone. Fortunately it’s only a tiny minority, but it’s what stays the most on your mind.
