Ive seen this many MANY times. But I think people forget that most open source are passion projects.

You are owed nothing at all when someone publishes their code on the internet. Thats what it is, its just an instruction manual to do a thing. Unless you pay something for the privilege of support, complaints will do next to nothing. Even now on lemmy/piefed/fedi.

Get hired elsewhere
Accept PRs that came out of thin air
Import libraries, that's out of date
Hold opinions that are filled with hate

Dumb ways to die πŸ‘―
So many dumb ways to die

Compete directly with a fork
Do your own encryption work
Let Claude code, without review
I wonder what this red button do?

I didn't realise Drupal is still around! I remember when they forked from Mambo and I had to convert a few sites across. That was probably 20 years ago now!
