This has nothing to do with rockstar culture and everything to do with the fact that you're spending 10x the amount of typing complaining about an issue than it would have taken you to just go and fix it and be done with this. So either you don't want it fixed because you prefer to complain and die on your sword, or you don't know how to fix it.
Either way I'm done with the conversation. If there is actually an issue I expect someone else who is actually levelheaded and reasonable will identify it and submit a PR. Because that's how you improve open source software, not by throwing tantrums and making wild assumptions about peoples agendas. Go touch grass or something.
Then I'm confused, because that was my own idea.
I'm no longer complaining, you convinced me, I love them like Rock Stars now and I have formally apologized and explained how wrong I was in my thinking because of my past memories of running mission-critical PostgreSQL servers. Are we clear now? It's all about Style and Fashion, and I got way too worked up about crashes.
I don't get this. Why are you making it about me? Do you think I am the one who opened GitHub issue 2910? Is that your accusation? That I created a fake account and opened issue 2910? I was not worried about me. Even in June I was not worried about me personally. I was worried about the person who opened the issue, is that understandable to you?
I was worried about Reddit users encountering server crashes. This isn't about one person, me. This is about thousands of people and a June 30 deadline.
But 12 hours ago, I have turned direction. I did not realize just the kind of culture and "Rock Star" attitude that was going. I was focused on Reddit June 30, and I didn't see that the social conventions were far more important than server crashes. It was a mistake for me to be worried so much about data and crashes when that isn't the culture here. I am finding everything thinks it is "cool" and "fine" that it took over a month for 2910 to be resolved. I never expected that, it was me who was socially out of touch.
I really got lost socially and regret my attitude problem. I should have learned back in March with Elon Musk running Twitter now, that the rules for social media cultures are vastly different than my measures for what would consider to be "cool" regarding a server crash issue. Not one person has said that 2910 should have been addressed within 3 or 4 days of being created. So I know now that it is me who has to change.
Do you think the issue isn't fixed or something? This is a postmortem discussion. You seem confused. Or do you think some other confusion, like I'ts about me personally in Issue 2910?
