Well, how far does that get you? I work hard to change things within my control. The best you can do here is write the code your own self. What good does complaining about it do? Bad behavior to accept the things I cannot change? OR sanity? Good luck with your choice. Let's look back in 2 more years and see if anything has changed yet.
Look at history, both here on BGA and in the IRL world. Many times it doesn't help. But sometimes it does. So then it is woth all the other times.
Both you both have points and not. Complaining is usually not a good way to create change. Coming with constructive critisism or doing it yourself is better. "within my control", everything is in some way even if it feels distant. But I understand what you mean and if you want to focus on that it is of course okey. But some have "bigger thoughts". That is okey too.
What I am mainly reacting on in your previous comment is "find somewhere else to play". With your latest comment I understand you don't mean it in the same way many others do. Most times it is used to get away with being lazy, master suppression technique, getting rid of people that can make a good difference for the masses but not some rich individuals and so on.
So I am thinking about a broader perspective than just this case. It seems you didn't mean to be toxic. But that can often be or be interpreted as toxic. Loosing people that can be of good use and their motivation to actually help and make a difference.
With that comment you may make someone that might have become a developer on the sight loose their motivation to even try and become that. So then that person goes somewhere else and develops there instead.
