What an absurdly condescending and inaccurate comment, especially for someone saying just fork it instead of actually interacting with people to try to reach resolution of an issue. “Just fork it” is literally the opposite of working with others.
Splintering an ecosystem can end up with a worse outcome for everyone. A fork that no one cares about, created because someone had a tantrum instead of reaching resolution is not a home run. It will eventually fall so far out of sync with the main project that it will no longer get any of the maintenance or other benefits of a large project.
