[O__________O]

To me anything that intentionally misleads or overly generalize a topic which might be clearly and specifically addressed is click-bait by definition.

Author does not even mention that the post is specifically related to Pine64’s dependency on the Manjaro distro; a dependency that they not only self selected, but are funding. If they have such a major issue, solution is obvious, either change distros or fork it and only allow patches they are happy with into their ecosystem; not post a petition, of which so far only 16 people have signed since it was posted in June. Also, worth noting that Pine64 originally was built on Ubuntu, which has long-term releases, which is basically what author is asking for.
