      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.

      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).

          It's important for us to learn to show appreciation ona regular basis. There's a constant flow of negativity, let's make positivity the same

          I think the problem with OS burnout is not just related to money. OSS maintainers said that grateful comments keep them going the most.

          Loud could be criticism, bigger is the silent appreciation. You and @thejameskyle changed the landscape of JavaScript development for good.
