I think this is a cautionary tale about using social media while in a bad mood.

Considering how unreasonable he was in that thread, I'm assuming he was just in a bad mood or something like that. Except now he's on the front page of HN with tons of comments criticizing him and painting him as a bad person.

99.999% of people will probably forget this by tomorrow, but it still would suck to be on the receiving end of this kind of attention I think.

He also opened issues about four of his packages being used in the project. Doesn’t seem like a spur of the moment thing.

I guess it's not his first rodeo, he simply doesn't want to support whatever version is packaged by NixOS.

However the MIT license dictates what can or cannot be done. No need for further drama.
