I feel sorry for the OMIO maintainer community considering how entitled the MinIO community revealed themselves to be.

Step 1: I made this thing and am freely giving it away for the benefit of everyone. Come join the party!

Step 2: Wow, because this is a community project I can depend on it continuing to exist freely thanks to a large base of diverse parties invested in its continued growth and availability.

Step 3: Just kidding, I'm taking back the thing I made. Sorry if you were depending on it, migrate to something else or pay me.

Step 4: WTF dude?!

Step 5: Why are you all so entitled?

What is so hard about the idea that you are not perpetually entitled to the free labor of other people?

The only thing they owed people here was a 60 day notice imo. That would better respect the social contract.

I agree with you. But people are allowed to complain, so they're complaining. And the maintainers are allowed to ignore the complaining. Everything is according to the process.

Yeah I suppose you’re right
