Again - who cares?

If they went to the trouble of creating an account just to bump this issue... they probably care about it. Asking for update is just as often a way to subtly say "Can I pick this up?" or "Is there a way I can help move this ticket?" or "There was a pr, is this not getting merged because you won't accept this changeset?"

You seem to be making a value judgement I just don't get - who fucking cares if it's just some rando - they were all random people when they started the thread...

Lazy people who just want stuff done for free, now.

And yet... that question got an appropriate and helpful response:

This is blocked because the primary author is not available to help due to geopolitical issues.

Even if it is just some lazy person who wants stuff done (and frankly - I think that attitude is fairly defeatist - you have no idea who that person is) why are you letting them occupy your headspace if that's what you think?

Basically - even if they are lazy, you making the assumption makes you an asshole. Worse - it makes you less effective, because you take a possible volunteer and snub them immediately. Between the two - I'm much more annoyed by your behavior than theirs.

That's why I created this account to NOT contribute, just like this guy.
