Well, starting with the title of the thread, as others have noted. You’re
coming across as very confrontational and, well, entitled.

Open source does not imply full support. It’s just making the code available.
My understanding is that most of the Linux work is being done by volunteers.
Second, a lot of people here would disagree that the Linux version of Swift is
“non-functional”. You’re extrapolating from one problem that you ran into; if
a lot of people were hitting that problem, it would have been more of a
priority to fix (and you’d see notes from other people on the bug report, or
reports of duplicates), so I’m assuming you’re the only one. Yes, it’s
frustrating to be hit by an apparently-rare issue, but that doesn’t mean the
software is broken.

Because your language and tone are confrontational and offensive. If you’re not
willing to recognize that, I’m not sure what to suggest. Better communication
skills will get you farther in the long run than just arguing louder and more
vehemently.

You’ve pointed out two bugs that you filed. It’s good that you filed them! But
that’s neither an impressive number to report, nor a ridiculous number of bugs
in a product. So I’m not sure what you’re attempting to justify.
