There was a guy who not only didn't need your help. He came nicely and politely talking to you about a idea for future updates and has done all the technical investigation to check how the feature is and how it could be implemented.

You banned him without even acknowledging him.

Also, Opnsense, home assistant, the homelab community, the dozen of thousand of docker maintainers, they ALL either support directly the people using their software or at least do not try to hinder the community efforts to build their own self help spaces. Which you tried to do with Reddit.

People have simply asked a simple question yet you banned them directly, as if they are asking you directly, they didn't DM you directly and they asked the group telegram that you said they will find help in, yet you want to be the one leading the conversation and not let anyone ask questions and have other people helping them.

Just the moment you were writing this comment on, you were clearly irritated and banned people from Telegram for asking mundane questions just because you were in a bad mood.

Also, and the final thing that leaves no doubt, purging the whole github issue backlog was just demonic. There was literally no gain from this beside some sadistic privilege of showing who's boss.
