No, this is how some projects handle bullshit.
Criticism is fine and even useful.
Lemme explain the difference, because you are still not taking a grip on yourself.
When you think developers introduced a regression and refuse to fix it, and you can use arguments other than 'because I said so' to prove your point — this is criticism.
When you completely disregard all explanations why a certain feature was added, when you completely dismiss people pointing out that no, in fact other software has the same feature, and people do use it, then continue arguing ad nauseam — this is bullshit.
Got it? Good.
Now, you can be constructive and pay attention, and then we can have a conversation, or you can continue dismissing facts and go on living in an echo chamber. Your choice.
