This is a friendly reminder, as someone that once had my life ruined for six months because libre software nerds don't fact check things properly before they lose their shit about them, that there are human beings on the other end of your phone line that are thanklessly maintaining the programs you use and they're often unpaid.

The latest example is people losing their shit because someone not involved in the Flatpak project said some wrong things about systemd becoming a hard dependency, and the vitriol towards the developers hit such a fever pitch that they quite understandably decided that they're no longer motivated to support the people dogpiling them.
