From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

So you tried to shit on developers by posting a link to a completely reasonable request ("theming is fine but please be mindful of wasting our limited time by bombarding us with bug reports related to janky themes") that you hadn't even read. Got it.
People need to understand that none of this development is free. These people donate their time to make these projects for us to have, completely free of charge. Investigating a bug can take hours, or days, sometimes longer. Imagine doing that and it turns out there wasn't a bug with your program at all, it was with a theme that the user installed. I'd also be pissed off about the time I'm donating for the good of the community being wasted.
No, i didn't. Calm down.
You absolutely did lol. You complained about them and it reeked of entitlement. You don't have a God-given right for the developer of every app to investigate issues with somebody else's themes.
I see you've edited away much of it though. Sneaky.
Yeah, and i stated why. Stop trolling.
No, you shat on them, I called you out, then you hid what you said and said "oh it's not relevant never mind". You were absolutely shitting on devs.
Trolling? Lol I was directly conversing with you and addressing the point you made.
If anybody is trolling, it's the person who was shitting on devs (now denying it) and backing himself up with a blog post that he hadn't even read.
