Yeah because everyone who has a user experience feedback about a piece of software is magically a skilled programmer? The smug "PRs accepted" doesn't help anyone. Expressing hope for a feature at least shows potential implementers that the feature is wanted.

Expressing hope for a feature? Is that the tone you pulled from that post?

"Doesn’t solve VLCs suckiness on iOS. No PiP support when it’s been in iOS for years now…" is an obvious entitled complaint.

ideas/assholes/everyone has one, etc

There's a certain rudeness to imposing your own ideas, but that does not apply here. It's not their idea. It's a standard feature of video apps that's missing.

The observation isn't about imposing ones ideas, but rather the relative surfeit of ideas vs the dearth of time/skill/energy to realize them.

I felt I was replying to rudeness with rudeness of a similar tone. GP called an open source project "sucky" for not having a feature they wanted. Calling that "expressing hope" feels a stretch to me.
