    Nobody is gatekeeping. One of us is asserting that there’s no such thing as a free lunch.

    The features being requested do not come for free. Someone has to sink the time into doing the work.

    So, in an argument between people doing the work and people insisting someone else do the work for them, but it must be to the specifications of the armchair quarterbacks… well… I’ve got bad news about the things the non-paying non-coders want.

    You can either pay money or pay time, but nobody cares about the freeloaders demanding things without offering any kind of compensation.

      " the day I start caring about what non-contributers think …"

      Be sure not to wear your actual gate keeping opinion on Your sleeve if you want to deny them .

        It’s always interesting to see how people react to being told to put in their own effort instead of demanding the effort of others.

        You have access to the code bases. You have access to the contributing rules. You can submit your patches to the same repos everyone else puts their code in. What exactly is being denied to you?

          Honestly kid. I’m done with this. You know the answer to that. I’m done with this. You’re all just too exhausting.

          And again that is a Linux issue. Because no one wants to be thought of as insufferable as it appears Linux contributes are.

          If one doesn’t want valid critique, one should take their software private and leave everyone alone.

          Otherwise anyone can make all the critiques they want. Don’t like it? Don’t do things in public. Make the software privately and alone

            Thanks for admitting that you don’t actually care about the software. This was never about the software. This was only about your desire to control the actions of other people. Your previous comment already showed that when you chose to highlight my lack of interest in your opinion and not anything that actually matters.

            You might want to consider spending less time on social media.

              And now you’re lying. Man. You really are going to tell me that’s what I said?

              You’re being silly … that’s what I’m Saying. You can have an opinion all you want, you can stand by it, and you can defend it, but none of that makes you any less incorrect or insufferable. .good day.
