       https://kennethreitz.org/essays/2026-03-18-open_source_gave_me_everything_until_i_had_nothing_left_to_give hurts so much to read...We may not know each other, but if you are a maintainer of a project (open source or not), let it be yet another cautionary tale of the uncomfortable truth: No-one should sacrifice their health for their craft!Too many people in our community end up burning out, or even taking their own lives... this *has* *to* *stop*! * Yes, please take pride in your work, but don't tie your identity to it! Building a *trusted* community of contributors is even more fun anyway. * Yes, listen to your community, but don't make yourself responsible for the success of the project!I really would like to see @sima's attempt from 2017 at a Maintainer’s Manifest come to fruition and get widely applied: https://blog.ffwll.ch/2017/01/maintainers-dont-scale.html . I certainly am very grateful for having been exposed to her warnings and recommendation. It definitely made my burnout way less severe than it could have been (even then, I will never be the same again, for better and worse), and pushed me deeper into building testing automation to make reviews less painful for everyone while also increasing quality!

       @ariadne Yep, and it deeply messes up my sleep to this day, over ten years after moving to Finland. I have to have insanely good blackout curtains in multiple layers, and even then I lucid dream so much during the summer months.

       @wolf480pl @amonakov I guess it is the responsibility of the package managers to rebuild systemd when any of its dependency (optional or not) gets updated...Not much different from usual then.

       @ariadne Will it exclusively play the music of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caligula%27s_Horse ? 😆Jokes aside, there was a time I would have traveled for that!
