Not everyone has enough bandwidth in their lives to actively fix every broken free&#x2F;open source project out there.<p>Rather than being seen as attacks on a project, these sorts of comments are often just highlighting some things that whoever is looking at that particular project might want to fix.<p>The &quot;don&#x27;t criticise unless you&#x27;re prepared to fix it&quot; attitude is very similar to the sort of &quot;Don&#x27;t bring me problems, just solutions&quot; attitude that some managers have that results in a culture of people keeping quiet about stuff they&#x27;ve spotted but don&#x27;t have either the time or ability to fix themselves.
