   Oh yes it's that time of year where home-brew admits it utterly hates and detests its users.

   Is it just me or is their messaging getting worse?

     What I see there is not “Homebrew hates its users,” but rather “The maintainers of Homebrew have been traumatized by some miserable shit from users that we don’t see, and they are now in siege mode”

     ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Maybe so. I just know that behavior like that usually has a cause, and hating the recipient usually isn’t it. “Hurt people hurt people.”

     @inthehands In the context of how they respond and treat their users on github I think you're quite wrong.

     @schwa @inthehands using the beta is not a supported configuration. Why does this mean they hate their users? I’d pull up usage numbers but it isn’t worth my time it’s so obvious.

     @inthehands i believe the behavior is "filing bugs based on beta software". Shameful.

     @jason No apology needed, just didn’t want to be in the middle of a reply war if one arose!

     @inthehands sorry for the mention. I have no need to argue.
