From the article:
> As of 2017-Apr-12 we have more than 214,000,000 million [sic] downloads and it is still at a consistent rate with ~100,000 downloads in average per day". That is 100,000 people every day who are downloading the output of a project that clearly lacks the development capacity to get important bug fixes out to users, much less understand and improve the entirety of such a massive body of code.

Actually even more - they harm the image of the open source itself, providing an off product instead of pushing the progress and redirecting to LibreOffice...

100k downloads/day is a lot.
