You don't do that if the plugin is provided for free, you can just say "thanks" or "no thanks", just don't use it / develop your own.

I meant respectfully blame, fwiw. If your plugin crashes my browser and I like the plugin, I'll fix it / send a bug report. If I don't like it, or it's beyond repair, I'll uninstall it.

I have way bigger stones I can grind my axe on, if I ever feel the need.
