You as well. Sorry if I came across rude in my original posting. I can make mountains out of mole hills sometimes. its something I’m trying to work on, and I just wanted to express that I do apologize and I can understand how complicated what your team does is, and there is no way I could do a better job than y’all have done. You guys are a blessing for even taking on the project in the first place, and without people like you and your colleagues and peers, I would be stuck with no other option than Microsoft, and I realize that being upset with y’all over something almost completely out of your control is not and will not solve any of my issues, and moving forward with any developers, I will stay calm and collected and provide adequate information that is valuable instead of ranting and being rude. Thanks for your responses and not matching my energy and being an adult throughout our interaction even when I was acting like a child and throwing a virtual temper tantrum. Please don’t let myself or people like me dissuade you and your peers from continuing to do the world a favor with providing us with one of the most valuable things in tech: free, open-source software. - Have a nice day. thanks agin for being cool when i was an a** hole initially.
