        i don’t know why, why would you ask me that? your comments are increasingly hostile. i’m following a repo, i saw a comment, i find it funny.

          No, I I’m responding to you characterizing this as a poor hobbyist developer who is tired and going to stop maintaining their hobby project, none of which appears to be the case.

          This is a corpo flaming a corpo. This developer left Canonical to work here.

      You really should’ve gotten permission from him to post this. You’re all over this thread basically laughing with emojis at his disgrace. It’s a couple of small developers doing home automation stuff. They don’t need this kind of diss. You should delete this post, and if you really want to say something about open source culture, maybe get permission and actually put effort into anonymizing the image.

        i’m laughing at the reply. i don’t think it’s a disgrace. i think it’s a good example of what happens when bloodsucking corpos take it too far. they not only squeeze their employees but force people working on an open source project to work for them, for free as well.
