When you're talking to an open source dev, just remember that they are literally giving you their time for free, and they are people who don't like to be treated poorly.

Edit: Just to be clear, I don’t mean any ill will toward the guy. He’s frustrated and he’s just taking it out in the wrong venue at the wrong people, but that doesn’t mean he’s a bad person.

Edit 2: The reinstalling he’s talking about is NPM. So just running npm install. It’s because he tried removing the node_modules directory, which is a reasonable thing to do, but it means you need to reinstall the modules with that command.

this sort of stuff is rampant. A few years old but it makes my blood boil every time I think about it.

Tool Creator should work on this, it ain't making no sense that the default json file (Google) is not updated cause seeing that work on Google tells us that it definitely works on all sites

@drk1wi please resolve google.json file to stop this cookie disabled error

Seems minor but the tone of the demand is wildly entitled.
