      My original plan for @babeljs was to consolidate all the tools that involve processing source code. Lint, bundling, you name it.

      Turns out that's really hard. Especially in open source where you're scrutinised so heavily.

      I'll probably do it eventually, in private. I don't get much value out of open source these days.

      Hard to stay motivated when people are yelling at you to justify every little thing you do and take your actions as attacks.

      I would rather have a single consumer, with friendly users, with tight integration and a complete laser focus.

      And this is why many open source developers join large companies and disappear. Because open source sucks.

      They're still building the same stuff, just not for you.

      I don't think I can do open source ever again. We built @yarnpkg in private and then open sourced. Quickly after I lost all motivation.

      I remember Babel being attacked early on by people on TC39 and members of the browser teams.

      I don't just mean "Babel sucks" I mean "Babel was written by incompetent developers".

      Most of the time it was just me and @thejameskyle, so of course I got personally offended.

          You cannot do open source without everyone thinking you're trying to take over the world.

          Just because you want to do something doesn't mean you want everyone to use it. You think the React team wants everyone to use React?

          How often did we say IE sucks or windows sucks etc etc? You realize thats not a personal thing, its how people experience a product.
