Oh I abso-fucking-lutely can imagine seeing someone spamming me with DMs or making a public post to try and shame me instead of commenting on the actual source project going straight into my “ignore this twat” pile. This post is just a cry for attention. You’re trying to be some sort of hero, saving us from evil or some shit.
Go make a GitHub request like a reasonable normal person and stop cluttering up others feeds with this inane bs.

I am not typing here in the hopes that they will fix it. I am typing here to communicate to other users what’s up with it. Whether or not to fix it is up to them. You’re welcome to your opinion.

Bullshit. In another comment you literally complain about them posting comments and not fixing this because in your words it should take less time to just fix it. You also say that their response(or lack of) to this specific post is interesting to you as proof of their inner motivations.
You’re so full of shit you can’t even keep it straight since you posted this an hour ago.

A lot of people, I think, would appreciate knowing if there’s indication that their software might be doing something sketchy to them. You might feel that my appropriate response about it should be to shut up, shut up, shut up!, but I don’t think I will. When it comes to issues of trust and security in software, it’s usually not that good an idea to just silently fix it and not talk about it so nobody’s feelings will be hurt and no one will feel bullied.
I’ve posted the patch and recommended that someone post a PR about it. I do think it would be good if it gets fixed. If the Lemmy devs claim that me being a twat is a good excuse for just leaving it as is, then like I said, that’s a super interesting turn of events.

Attention whore. That’s all you are.
