Love the idea of gstreamer; HATE the execution -- BUT I HATE YOUR SHITTY, SELFISH ATTITUDE WORST OF ALL! AND SO DOES GOD! FUCK YOU!

[Chris Duncan]

Ultimately, GStreamer is free software. Not only that but the forums and
mailing lists are free support. Whilst any comment written in frustration
may be warranted in technical terms, the emotion and sometimes ridiculous
wanting is not.

Yes, it’s a complex and sometimes difficult framework to work with but
nobody owes you anything and don’t forget that.

Thank you to all open source contributors and core maintainers. I hope you
have a merry Christmas.

P.s… I think Mr. Blanchard is a troll and should not be responded to sober
folk 😊
