I'm sure his ideas have advantages and the lemmy devs can be frustrating to work with but he literally showed up yesterday spamming the matrix chat and now this

Sounds like he's just salty he did work and they won't use it. Could have been solved by simply asking before if they'd be open to changing their CI. At the end of the day the Lemmy devs going to be the ones using and most likely maintaining it so what they're comfortable using is what goes.
Companies do similar shit all the time where they develop something for their specific use case and then fight tooth and nail to upstream it so they don't have to be the ones maintaining it.
Yeah the funny thing is he asked in the matrix chat about GitHub actions and was specifically told "no we don't wanna use Microsoft" before going and putting that PR together, so he doesn't even get that excuse, such as it is
Ah nevermind. Just another programmer with a god complex I guess. Many such cases
If he had better communication skills and made any attempt to tailor his PR to the project's wishes not his own preferred tools it could've been fine and maybe even been used. He's right about much of what he said but he is being inflexible and a dick about the specifics.
True but I can definitely relate to the hyper focus on building something on a whim and then hope it's useful later approach. Trick is to post the code like it's a pack of crisps "oh does anyone want this? I'm not gonna eat it"
