Exactly. The open source community is far from homogenous, and people who engage in it (maintainers, packagers, <s>leechers</s> users, etc.) tend to have wildly different expectations that vary from person to person. I’m sure RMS, some Contributor Covenant wielder and I won’t ever agree on a set of assumptions.

Moreover, companies present themselves as “active, dependable project”s then go belly up all the time. Not sure why hobby projects should be held to a higher standard.
