I got a single class that supported new hardware written for a controller. They said they don’t want the overhead of maintaining an additional class for new hardware (a class that doesn’t change ever btw). I thought whatever, works for me, doesn’t need to be on the repo and “I got mine”. I have since seen 3 people asking if the hardware is supported / asking for it to be implemented. Oh well.
Same with me. I asked upfront if they would accept a PR for a minor change. I described the issue in detail and my proposed fix.
He said sure.
I made the PR.
Same guy comments, “Wtf do you need this for?! We already have X solution with Y features.”
I reply back, “Because Y doesn’t cover Z use case, which is what I need it for.”
The issue was closed without further comment.

In that case I’d point them to your fork with a link to the PR where they maintainer chose not to include it.
Why? To start problems for me from pissy maintainers when I need help with something?
