As a reminder, you pay for open source w/ kindness. Don't make demands (you can request), argue (you can have a pleasant conversation), or be mean (you can always just not say anything). Otherwise your "refund" for that open source you apparently "overpaid" for could consist of being called out for your behaviour, ignored, blocked, the OSS contributor walking away/burning out, or that code you were using being yanked off the internet.
