We all have to rebase our PRs from time to time. It comes with the territory, it's nothing terrible. I bet you could rebase whatever you've done in much less time than you spend complaining. If you don't know how to rebase with git, there are many people here who can lead you through it.

Keep in mind that one of the reasons I'm not eager for major refactoring PRs is they cause everything in the queue to be rebased. Mine included.

So how do you get that I have a problem with rebasing from the DMD backend being buggy, a damn mess of code with no documentation, and there's really only one person maintaining it but they are too busy doing other things to bother doing work on the backend and related PRs, and that it should be replaced with LLVM because of a long list of benefits that outweighs the cons? My mind is shattered with the ki d of mental gymnastics that you have had to pull to get that point, did you even read the comment? Evidentially not.

The troft is over there, not here -- cause that's about as relevant.

You can always start contributing in a positive manner by addressing the issues that matter to you. This is an open source project. If you want currency, contribute. Not contributing coupled with relentless complaining moves you to the bottom of the list of people we listen to.

More friendly advice: berating people isn't going to work here. It's not like you're paying anyone.
