Today, I stumbled on vlaanj home page, read recent bitcoin-dev mailing list history and realized how much of a burden it is to be a in a center of bitcoin development.
How much stress, harassment, toxicity online they have to endure for whatever minor change they'd propose or even getting in a middle of a discussion in an attempt to improve or otherwise move bitcoin forward . CSW court case is an example.
Just looking from my vantage point of being in corporate safety of whatever bs mental health protection at work programs, it's such a contrast.
These people, well still probably holding substantial amount of bitcoin, could've already rest their case, yet doing this for no salary, no immediate return and for good of the public.
Please know, it all is worth it. One day ignorance will turn reason, system will become more fair thanks to your sweat and in hindsight people remember at those who've been involved, as you were no one and everyone at the same time.

Devs rock and we all owe them a debt of gratitude. When number goes up it's good to sling them some sats via Opensats, or some other way.
