Professionals volunteer their time and do their best to get things

Still doesn't happen? Too bad, nobody's fault really.

The community doesn't work for you. Each individual sets its own goals
and motivations. If something doesn't happen, you can ask nicely how
you can help to make it happen and sooner or later you'll figure out
how to go and fix it yourself (sometimes that means becoming a
maintainer, but to achieve that you need time, effort and a
constructive mindset).

It is a problem reported as early as 2010.
It affects fair amount of software.

And?

Actually, it is your problem, we have a code of conduct for a reason,
if you offend people willingly in any GNOME communication channel you
have a problem. Not caring on whether people get offended or not, is
in my opinion your problem. And people willing to work with you and
help you depends at a large extend on how nice you behave with them.

You are creating another problem in the process. Please keep other's
people's feelings into account and give up that proud undertone in
your responses.

You feel offended because a real bug is put in front of you?

It is not about being offended about a bug, it is about how disgusting
it is to talk to someone who treats you like crap.
