I will no longer be able to assist with development nor debugging actual issues with the software… Quite juvenile behavior from the devs. It stemmed from this issue where the devs continuously argued in public by opening and closing an issue. Anyway, thought I would keep y’all apprised of the situation, since these are the people maintaining the software you are currently using.

    The comments read like you banned the dev for making a telling point in favor of reopening the ticket.

    The lesson I take away is that your ego is more important to you than improving Lemmy.

      The issue was already open. I gave a temporary ban for posting pointless complaints which added nothing to resolving the issue.

        Talk it out. Slamming a ban on a contributor it’s just immature and damaging

        Really? Is it necessary to ban people about making a valid argument. I know and also don’t like people asking a low effort “What’s the status of this” (and would totally get why such a thing would be marked off-topic, but a ban over something like this is still to harsh IMHO, they will learn, that such questions are not well-received over just the marking it as off-topic).

        But the comment discussed here has a valid concern (quickly closing issues that don’t have satisfactory solution yet, without getting feedback).

        A better reaction would be to just ask, whether the issue at hand is still relevant, having [these] alternatives at hand etc.
