Yours is the only mentally healthy attitude one can have today in regards to open source. The character and audience of OSS have changed and increased respectively.
It was quite sad to read this post for me, because I can see that the author has partly interwoven their sense of self-worth with their OSS work. The whole blog is a painful balancing act between speaking their mind and being polite which can only end in more grief for them until they let their displeasure show.
This is not coincidentally the impression I also get from the larger online Rust community. They repress their feelings, always trying to be prim and proper in their interactions, but those normal(!) negative feeling are still there and vent in bizarre ways, such as bothering random Rust developers the other day because their code is not "safe enough".
