And now you're asking how to complain without it being viewed as complaining. The decision was made, move on unless you have a compelling argument you haven't brought yet. Contributing is fine, harping on something that's already decided and done (2 years ago!) is not contributing.
No, I was asking how to propose changes without it being viewed as complaining. Just because something was "done" two years ago doesn't mean there's not a better way of doing it. I've already said why I posted to the list; I can't see why that's "harping on about it" and this just comes across as "patronizing" on your part. So fine, I'm not an Arch user or dev - but so what? Do you want me to quote your own Code of Conduct here? I assume it's not just "because Manjaro" as that would be counter-productive for everyone. As far as this issue goes, I'm happy to leave it that the Arch devs aren't interested in making the change, as apparently there is zero merit in the proposal, despite `top` currently not honouring terminal colour settings and so being inaccessible. Even if there were any merit, any change now would undermine the hard-line position you've taken. J
