I'm not surprised at all that someone on HN replies to a positive story about some open-source product with unrelated bug complaints, then implies the bugs are due to malice on the part of the developers.

My worst downvotes have been when I'm referring directly to the motivations or knowledge of the commenter. My second-worst downvotes are when I'm opining on something I know nothing about. My suggestion (to myself, and anyone else interested) is to avoid these two pitfalls.
