Peanut gallery, in my experience. The number of people who I've never met before who decide to complain about hardcoded file paths or run a linter and tell me my paper must therefore be garbage is frustratingly high.
This seems to depend on a paper getting a modest amount of media traction. That seems to set off the group of people who want to complain about code online.
