Come on, if we cared about popular opinions, this would be a javascript or nodejs list, not a Pharo list.
I care about my ��customers being happy and accounts receivable clearing up on time so that I can provide for people who depend on me.
As far as I am concerned, you actively contributed to your channel volume being set to mute on my side.
That's how you come across and get on my nerves. Not because of what you write. Because of how.
I do not have a problem with critics against Pharo, I am cursing daily in front of it.��
So far, my level of cursing is lower when working with Pharo than with other tool chains.
Pharo is there, I am happy for it to be around. Since the 1.x era, this thing has massively improved. Pharo 7 will be wonderful. Bootstrapping, how great. Massively great. Vector graphics, super. VM seeing major improvements and speedup. Roassal: awesome. GT: nothing can touch it. Community: packed to the gills with people who actually deliver working and innovative code. Want to be part of it? Your loss if you choose not to. Otherwise, welcome.��
Contribute whatever you can.��
It is all tears in the rain anyway. As if I cared.
