When you’re talking to an open source dev, just remember that they are literally giving you their time for free, and they are people who don’t like to be treated poorly.

Edit: Just to be clear, I don’t mean any ill will toward the guy. He’s frustrated and he’s just taking it out in the wrong venue at the wrong people, but that doesn’t mean he’s a bad person.

Edit 2: The reinstalling he’s talking about is NPM. So just running npm install. It’s because he tried removing the node_modules directory, which is a reasonable thing to do, but it means you need to reinstall the modules with that command.

    Or don’t be that “don’t use any of my GPLv3 packages in your projects, because i don’t want”

    Or, that guy who is “My project is free and open source, please don’t use for piracy, i don’t support piracy”

    But yeah, complaining sucks, especially from somebody who doesn’t have his hands dirty, to somebody who does

    And for free projects, don’t pay- don’t expect anything And even when paying, don’t expect much Just make stuff yourself, only making everything yourself you can be sure it will be good
