For instance, let's look at what you describe here as "my PR was fixing a ton of stuff but it was ignored and closed".
First, the title of your PR is "Make the kernel less awful"... really? How would you feel if I opened a PR saying "Make DivestOS suck a little less, but let's be honest, it will still be a piece of shit after that"?
Not even mentioning that you say "Untested, but shouldn't require more than a handful drop/reverts". So you just come and drop a huge PR that you haven't tested, and then you complain that others don't pick it up?
Before closing your PR, the maintainer said:
> Don't get me wrong, it's impressive, but there's no way I'm going to merge this. You can't send someone 424 patches to a repo and expect them to stop everything they're doing for a month and checking them one by one in case just one of them fucks up the entire system (or contains some kind of malicious code), even less so on a 3.18.140 kernel that originally comes from Qualcomm.
That is very fair, and I would not call that "being ignored" at all.
Keep up the good work, and learn to communicate in a constructive way!
