That's the biggest issue

There are so many people in the community who attack developers.

I had a open source project which I started, it got a lot of media attention but I gave it up because so much of the community is toxic and just made me feel unsure about developing the idea further.

And lots of other developers are the same. Even with Lemmy, people weren't going to contribute, but they targeted the developers political beliefs.

And I see so much crap talking on Lemmy here because developers choose to use GitHub or discord. If you don't like that, contribute to the project, but don't try to dictate the project you have no involvement in

I blame developers who use discord. The interface is a mess, the company is enshitifying, and you can’t archive the past.

It maybe easier, but I question why anyone would willingly choose it over most anything else.

Note that this is different from being a dick about it and harassing people.
