Hi Emily! Thanks for your reply. I’m sorry to hear of your being the victim of harassment and I appreciate your post here clarifying the circumstances.

Thank you for your contributions to open source software. Many web users, myself included, rely on free and open source projects for our work and recreation and these products would not exist without the generous contributions of kind and skilled persons such as yourself.

I hope you recover from your burnout and find a fulfilling role somewhere that respects your mental health and values your contributions.

Awkward. Somehow I feel you would have been happily piling on with the harassment given the chance.
Consider being less judgmental of strangers in the future, your instincts are off.
