Open-Source Project Decommissioned

I, James Sumners, took it on when it was languishing without any maintenance as it filled a need in the ecosystem and I had built things at a prior organization that depended upon this project. I spent a lot of time triaging issues and reworking things toward a path that could be more easily maintained by a community of volunteers. But I have not had the time to dedicate to this project in quite a while. There are outstanding issues that would take me at least a week of dedicated development time to solve, and I cannot afford to take time off of work to do that. Particularly considering that the aforementioned organization was two jobs ago, and it is extremely unlikely that I will transition to a role again that will need this project. So, why am I just now deciding to decommission this project? Because today, 2024-05-14, I received the following email: Remind me to pimp slap your mom when she sucks my cock Diego Schmiego <diegojovstein@gmail.com> to me 3:54 PM (2 hours ago) Reply you spandex wearing queer i hope a car runs your over next time you shave your logs and go ass to mouth on your goofy little skinny tire road bike on your homoerotic wheel human centipede with your boyfriends for writing such a shitty ldap dn api you really expect me to for loop through n lengthy and then build my own key-value pair with id of cn=...???(yes/no), value=? and ... what the fuck is wrong with you fucking idiot hiding the only useful attributes inside of private members just to wrap them in the worst fucking class interface i have seen since i saw a blonde girl's programing 101 homework embarrassed to quit the code into gitlab my coworkers are going to think im gay like you with a dildo seat in my ass I will not tolerate abuse, and I especially will not tolerate tacit death threats, over a hobby. You can thank the author of that email for the decommissioning on this project.

A GitHub repository page announces that the open-source project has been decommissioned and archived. The maintainer explains that abusive email and death threats from a user caused him to shut the project down, turning the usual love of open source into an absurdly hostile punchline. This is shared as a dark, ironic reaction to toxic users, unpaid maintenance, and open-source burnout.
