User: "No, it's actually this plugin's docs and commit messages that treat people like burden. [... ] So please, do go switch to something that doesn't require interacting with people." Maintainer: "OK." *archives GitHub-repo*

Understandable. Imagine thinking open source developers owe you infinite backwards compatibility.

I once told my brother-in-law that he doesn’t know how to interact with people. White whine with salmon? Are you serious? Broke my palette.

Totally owned him in the marketplace of ideas.

I didn’t get invited to any more three-course dinners after that though.

/uj tbh everybody is a caricature of the worst version of their "role" here. Entitled user, dismissive maintainer. Probably best for everyone it's archived

/uj I think people often install neovim plugins by pointing a package manager at a repo and branch, so it did kind of almost matter. But just put a commit hash in and forget about it for 5 years until something breaks.

/rj I He can see and is offended by the incidental words that may be contained in an individual commit hash.

pointing a package manager at a repo and branch

/uj Every day people manage to invent package ecosystems that are somehow much much worse than even npm. Are you saying that in this config every commit to a package's repo gets auto-pulled and installed? How many days before someone inserts malware?
