That comic was so subtle to make youbfeel sorry for her. They skip how he worked hard. They use a sick parent as an excuse fornher to be a waitress. Ugh.
Early adopters are usually not so well adapted to socialization. I tend to be extremely blunt and type like I'm talking to other bitter, utilitarian, friends.
The secret to open source is to fully develop the project all by yourself then dump it on the community like a bad dog shitting in the middle of the living room floor while you're watching a romantic movie with your honey. A horse designed by committee always seems to turn into a camel anyway. Put it out there and let others deal with development and support.
The whole article is one giant "look at this privilege, we need safe spaces" piece of crap.
Not only does this tell others that it is not OK to be disrespectful, it may also give the original commenter a chance to apologies and change his/her behaviour.
I hope someone in the comments goes off on him for spelling "apologize" wrong. (Though I suppose the Brits spell it with an "s", which would still make it - "apologise".)
Do you know what the proper response to someone not appreciating your free software is? "FUCK OFF." If they're right, and there is an issue, make a new issue that only includes technical details and tell them to fuck off in theirs and close it. Done. There always have been, and always will be, asshats in the world.

Open Source has no place for disrespect, but the term was created as an act of disrespect for the moral principles of Free Software.

Good view point. I just ignore asses. I also try to say thank for the code I use.
You're right about dumping code. Lots of people do that.

Entirely too damn sensitive to the shitstorm that is life.

But they want you to feel bad that you, your parents or forefathers worked hard.
