I've been using Zig for years. Is this not a discussion forum?

My apologies, your previous comment read to me as "I have engaged, I just read this blog post". I now see what you intended.

I've realised from the comments under this post that many people seem to desire some sort of performative "professional" communication style from people above all else. I don't know why people care about this so much and I don't think I care to know.

I know you said you don't care to know. But for others wondering: being professional is important because it reduces conflict. Having a leader of the language personally insult someone like this makes the community feel that it is okay to insult others in the community too.

Personally I find it hard to believe that a community isn't toxic when their leader acts in this way.
