As a percentage of Kovid's posts, the ones where he might seem deliberately rude (as against being abrupt because he simply posts a link to an FAQ, or heaven forbid, a link to the commit for the fix) is absolutely tiny. But, if you only look at posts where he is responding to someone who is being rude or making demands, such as the first post here, it probably seems like he is rude quite often.

And looking at the first post, @pvspain states they told Kovid about an issue with newer libraries on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS breaking calibre. I can't find the discussion as @pvspain only the three posts in this thread, which seems strange. So I don't know if this is one of the times where a Linux distro decided to adopt a beta version of calibre as their current version and hence calibre and lots of plugins stopped working.
