The project was archived back in April. I assume there were multiple incidents along the way, but the final straw was the discussion in this thread:
https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter/discussions/8627#discussioncomment-16440673
Basically it is just people demanding things from open-source developers and behaving like shit while doing so. These guys don't have any respect for the work other people do for free in their spare time.
I use a lot of open-source software, but I usually don't interact with the developers. Whenever something like this happens I feel like we as a community should show our love and appreciation for these projects a lot more, so that devs don't burnout due to this loud minority full of negativity and sometimes just plain harassment.
Aah, cheers for the clarification. I skimmed the github link in the original post, but it mostly seemed like people were happy, and I'd not heard anything about treesitter so it kind of came out of left-field. :)
People acting entitled to the time of volunteers is bananas.
