The GP comment was well beyond honest feedback. Honest feedback is like "I find such-and-such piece of the UI ugly", or "All of my friends get confused by the way it does XYZ".
What I object to is the way our community viciously tears each other down. "This open source product is the worst thing ever! Kill it!" This crap is not productive. It's harmful.
We're up against companies who want to monopolize markets, lock us in to proprietary platforms, and own our data forever. And then when somebody finally comes along and tries to do the right thing, we attack them for not being perfect. F that noise. So, yes, I have contempt for this attitude.
(And no, I have no affiliation with the company being discussed in this article.)
