Sorry for meeting such an asshole maintainer. I’d never do this, especially for someone who actually did the preparatory work to find the location of the bug.
I’ve changed some of the details so it’s not easily googlable because it’s linked to my RL identity. The bug is a purely cosmetic off-by-one error though. And I didn’t give any indication I thought it was important or urgent. But the concise description of the bug, reproduction steps, why I strongly suspect it’s happening, and where I strongly suspect the fix needs to be made were all included.
The maintainer’s comments are pretty much verbatim.
This happens every single time I try to file a good bug report, without exception. I suspect they see the woman’s name on my account and assume I have no idea what I’m talking about?

Seriously that’s an incredible bug report.

Yeah, I’d buy that reporter a beer or something.
I wish the ones I get were half as good.
Then stop writing such obscure bugs?
It’s starting to go from bug report to peer review. if he made the fix too, it’d be a fucking pull request
