I agree. I still don't think it's right. I'm not sure how to do better. Overall, developing (in open source or not) or creating art or whatever one is into my once advice is to cherry pick whatever strangers are telling you. You only listen to the healthy advice and everything else must be like water off a duck's back.

In commercial development that's easy. I don't really care about the product I am working on. I am doing a good job working on it, but it's not my baby. Also, I am a developer, so I develop. There's customer support people who get paid to have customers scream at them.

If this is your personal pet project, that you love and that you poured your soul in, that's more difficult. Especially if you are already struggling with mental health.

And I don't like it when we say "only mentally stable people who don't mind engaging with a toxic community deserve to be FOSS developers". That's just not right.

No idea where that came from, I surely didn't mean nor suggest so.
