Ditto. I'm not going to put in the time to clean up a project working fine for me just to have it ignored or complained about. It's all expectation, very little reward

And even if I did get volunteers, I'm not coordinating people on my personal projects. Sounds like a great way to take all the joy out of it...

Open source is just broken right now, it runs by draining the passion out of people
