Basically, the guy isn't a good coder or maintainer, but by happenstance, lucked out into being the biggest chicken in the sourceport coop by everyone else being comparatively worse + lacking the long term staying power; as well as having an autistic control freak streak while trying to take credit for everything (including the original foundation of the code, that he didn't make, and barely understands anyways). Him being both autistic and having a command of ESL english makes any attempt at talking to him doesn't help his case either. Also had a meltdown over le controversial lilith.pk3 because it was a not!insult at his expense, that he took the bait on, hook line and sinker.
tl;dr it's codelet boomer picrel vs the usual current year powergrab nocode linuxtroons
