Woke up to 3 new hate emails from PyTorch fanboys, a new record (was this coordinated?).
I got my very first hate message in 2017, from a PyTorch fan, and it has been a recurring thing since. The degree of toxicity of that community is insane.
It's exhausting.
If you are a Keras user, I beg you: never behave like these people. Don't be a jerk. Don't harass anyone. Not that I've had reports of that ever happening.
Just be cool. Build great things. Help others.
If you are a PyTorch fan: please leave me alone. My work is not related to you. You don't need to feel threatened by my work. I'm just doing the best I can. I've been at it for 5 years, it has been a lot of work.
So please leave me alone, and leave the Keras & TF team alone.
Also remember that I am not Keras. Keras is backed by a team of awesome folks, and by a community of 400,000 users & contributors. Keras is a collective project, built by many, serving the needs of many. I merely started it, a long time ago. Attacking me won't help you.
I've never witnessed any issue with any other community. Not once. MXNet, Caffe, sklearn, you name it. Zero. But the PyTorch community is something special.
