I have. Check the story of how Linus (the one from Linux), changed the way he approaches suggestions after his old ways drove some guy to commit suicide…

I've never heard of that before and I couldn't fine any evidence of this happening. Linus was an ass and they stepped down after an intervention by the other core devs: https://gizmodo.com/linux-founder-takes-some-time-off-to-learn-how-to-stop-1829105667

The learning empathy sabbatical was a separate issue, but I seem to remember his talking about the other case was referenced in relation to it... somewhere. Can't find it now either, the keywords for "rejected patch" seem to have drowned it out 🤷
