Do you think that all ziglings refuse to write idiomatic code, have public fights with the language maintainers, and then write giant blog posts about how they're ditching the language because it just isn't good enough?

In D we've had several angry rants of people saying they were leaving D (it doesn't happen as often since most things got fixed) for other pastures and the leadership has never acted in an unprofessional way.

> have public fights with the language maintainers

Can you point to even one such example?

How many other Zig users publicly announced their unrequested fork of the language?

It this a joke? Your example of Jarred starting fights in public is announcing fork then pointing to a thread where he didn't even participate but rather members of the Zig community slinging mud?
