Was the reason for rejecting the pull stupid? Yes. Is this dogpiling 3 years later stupid? Also yes. And like the comments I linked above stated, this is giving a lot of fuel for people to defend awesomekling, “look at all the drama they’re making over ONE noun in ONE file referring to an anonymous user!”
Right now, my fear is that attention and effort that could go to actual development will be hijacked by this whole drama. I just hope this nonsense doesn’t last long.
For better takes than OP on the whole situation
