Lmao now my PR to remove trending hashtags is getting negative reactions 👌 👌

Look y'all here because I built Mastodon the way I wanted and you happened to like it. If you no longer like it that's your own business, don't give me shit about your failed expectations. There's the door, there's the code, there's the alternatives. The shit I've received today just because I was open to something that a part of the community wanted is completely inacceptable.

@gargron oh lucky you with time, resources and knowledge to do such a thing.

@zeezeemoomoo @Gargron This is nonsencical, he used his most precious resource, (time), to build something he wanted to see. You have the time to write this toot, so you can use it instead to make something useful, bit by bit. That's what I am doing anyway, building something I want to exist, tiny bit at a time. You can do the same and it will be much more appreciated than what you just wrote. You'll feel better for it too, believe me.

@MatejLach @gargron

youve made several false assumptions:
1. that everyone has time and energy
2. that eugen receieves no compensation or credit for his work
3. eugen is the only contributor to mastodon

Matej Ľach ✅ @MatejLach

@zeezeemoomoo @Gargron I did not.

1. I understand that, I have very little free time personally, but that's why I don't abuse people like Eugen who use their limited time on this Earth to build something others find useful. It can burn them out and then there will be less people willing to create things.

2a. For a long time, he did not. He does now, but that doesn't mean he lost all say over the software he has started, Windows is paid and they don't give a shit about what you say.
