The best Microsoft psyops to maintain market share and they don't get to pay anything lmao
Nah, they're just special little snowflakes that want to maintain their niche community being a niche community, and want everything to stay the same. First time I saw this behavior were metal elitists being angry at nu metal, and at Dream Theater every time when they haven't released an album titled "Metropolis Part III".
I also seen Linux elitists getting scared at "normies" taking away their "command line scripts", some even tried FreeBSD and OpenBSD for a while. I regularly meet Linux elitists not understanding that I want a UI for my debuggers, not an automated script.
A lot of other communities, such as gaming, amine, and VTubers suffer from way more extreme forms of elitism, usually as a form of recruitment tactic for the far-right.
I don't know. It doesn't make any sense that someone would be against a UI for something. It is just mostly a bunch of volunteers working on their own projects. I could see a volunteer saying something like "nah, I'm OK with it the way it is" because they are working on something for free, usually for themselves and sharing it for others to use and/or contribute to.
It seems odd that you'd complaining to some project maintainers and calling them elitists for not working on your suggestion and even odder still because I'd imagine many would be thrilled for someone to contribute to building a UI, even if it's just mock-ups. Unless you're talking about some random people in the Linux community but I don't really see any point in doing that since they probably have nothing to do with whatever projects you're talking about.
What would adding a GUI to a command line app even change about it as far as the command line? It isn't as if you either get one or the other; you can have both. It just doesn't make sense.
