I wish people would lay off @dansup - especially older, seemingly less successful developers.

People seem to forget that creativity breeds creativity; trying to shackle someone to *one* project that you want developing The Right Way is counter-productive.

"especially older, seemingly less successful developers"

Oh ouch, I am just here for the cool toots.

@dajb @dansup 100% this. As if “you should give up the time you want to spend on that to work on this” is motivational, or that you might be somehow “using up” your creativity working on multiple things… 🤦‍♂️

@dajb @dansup Indeed. I can't believe how incredibly patient, humble, polite and relentlessly positive he remains.

I'd just have an auto reply alternating between 'Patches welcome' and 'Fork off'.

@dajb @dansup in my world when someone is vocally critical of how something is run I ask them to put in the work to make it better. If you want to complain but aren’t available to help fix something you’ve got nothing to say. I learned this a long time ago helping nonprofits and its the fastest way to shutdown a troll or make them a great asset. It also helped me curb my own tongue from whipping out. 😋
