There's a whole lot of entitlement going on in that thread.

If the maintainers didn't want to merge it because they had bigger issues to worry about, that's that. Whining about it and trying to pressure them with prospects of "becoming obsolete [if you don't merge this]" isn't going to make a convincing argument.

They should either shut the fuck up and learn to RTFM, or maybe consider putting their money where their mouths are by actually paying to support the projects they seem to so desperately think they have a right to influence the direction of.

Very much so. I bet most of those people have never run an open source project or business, but they all have an opinion.

Pretty sad to hear this though since I really like Tailwind. I wonder how many other projects this vibe coding bullshit will harm. So sad to see more wealth being concentrated instead of being distributed.

our revenue is down close to 80%

oof. that's not something very many groups come back from. losing that much of their business and team, the project is on life support.

hmm laying of %75 of the team unfortunately sounds like tying up any remaining businesses before closing down

I hope so. It made a lot of websites hard to modify via usercss.

A comment late in the thread says none of the LLMs even use the PR-suggested llms.txt.

At first I thought it was the creators of Thailand.

I feel dumber after reading that thread.

I'm not even sure. From a LLM standpoint that's even a good idea. From all my research on getting good output context matters. So if you throw too much junk in the middle it'll get evens stupider then it already is
