A good sign you're hostile to potential contributors. Maybe have a clear readme that gets them a working dev environment in a command or two. Try not to shit on people in issues
Bro if you can't understand development that you think you need someone to give you "a command or two" to setup your own shit when people from all kinds of devices (x86, arm, PPC, etc) and all kinds of OS (windows, Mac, Linux, BSD, etc) have potential to contribute;
Why should anybody listen to you?
Maintain large open source project
Absolutely could be the case with things with specific tasks. It's always a good idea to share what your development environment is so others can replicate and if they're using something a bit different they probably know what they're doing anyway
