I get the feeling that it would be more feasible to build a separate kernel at this point. Its a lot of work, but adding another option to the comparatively small array of kernel options that we have might actually be a good idea -and in doing so, it word demonstrate r4l’s willingness to maintain the project long-term. There’s no need for this pissy behaviour, and there’s no need to take the drama to social media.

Forewarning, wine appears to be a bit broken on Mint at the moment. I was recently experimenting with it in a VM, and I could not seem to get it installed properly - even after adding the winehq repo. Debian, by contrast, just works. I still use winamp for my music library, and play a few games that are windows based.
