This wasn't necessary. I think it was. The amount of hostility with which Neil is being met for even trying something new is kind of staggering, and if I were him, I would be equally upset. It's way easier to say no than to try to build something new. I wish people would take that into account and try to engage with what someone is attempting to accomplish and respect the effort that they're putting into trying to make Debian better, even if they don't think this effort will succeed. For example, a whole lot of people have piled on to declare things that they consider misfeatures in Discourse to be "completely unacceptable" or other wording of that type, and very few of those people have asked the obvious question of whether these are things we could simply turn off, and what would be lost by doing so. It's easy for the negativity to feel highly asymmetric, and to quickly reach the conclusion that Debian is not a useful environment for attempting to accomplish anything new because it's so much easier for people to block things than it is for people to build new things. A lot of strenuous objections are equally effective when phrased as questions about capabilities and configuration options, and are much easier and less stressful to engage with in that form. -- Russ Allbery (rra@debian.org) <https://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/>
