      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.

      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?

      The answer is no so stop making open source competitive and stop making people justify why their project exists when there's other solutions

      Revel in fragmentation and duplication because without it there's stagnation and it stifles innovation.

      Just realised the thread makes me seem really sad, bitter and ungrateful. I'm super grateful for the opportunities OSS have afforded me.

          I find I get more satisfaction from building things using open source (versus building open source).

          @sebmck It may stem from everyone focusing on the issues. Even github only has 'issues' not 'feedback'. I think your work is 💯 and inspiring
