Well, “the community” is not as a whole happy about the outcome or the way this issue was handled in any way shape or form. I think Steve did a really good job of articulating the undercurrent behind this.

People should be allowed to be free of harassment. I think everyone would have been better off in this case if the individuals who were so concerned about the unnecessary safety, forked Actix and had a SafeActix, that was maintained without the usage they were concerned about.

If the maintainer isn’t going to accept your patches, then it’s time to decide how to move forward without needing to resort to harassment.
