> Everytime I see anything related to the open source world bubble up into the public I am only reminded of high school and college level social drama.

This is entirely explained by survivorship bias. The matural social interactions which are the bread and butter of open source never bubble up to your purview because they aren't dramatic and interesting.

This is such a key insight into understanding the world in general. What you see vs what's actually going on overall are two completely different things.

I wish those mature normal dynamics got more spotlight, not just in OSS but the general world. All the air is taken up by drama like this.

The general world would not care tbf, if you want to know just go read some oss mailing list

I didn't mean "mature normal dynamics" of open source. I meant that in general humans prefer outrage and drama to things working well and people having functional discourse and I wish the latter was celebrated more.
