> If you're going to get all worked up over something that slight, maybe doing work in public isn't the way you want to spend your time.

Or maybe the people doing the actual work have opinions that matter and the person whining only does at the contributors' discretion, so the complainers can pull themselves together if they want to be listened to at all?

He's complaining about an open article written about Angular2, which he isn't even a contributor to. He's complaining about general community dislike about the direction Babel 6 took.

It's not like this was Linus trashing a contributor for writing shitty code in a pull request.

So far as I can see in the article, he's not complaining about a single instance of anyone actually criticising him directly.

No one really cares who worked on Babel 6, all they know is there was a change that disrupted their work flow. No one is being personally attacked when the users criticize a change.
