When I see someone expects/demands something of me, I point them to the permissive MIT license. I am also a Spaniard living in Japan, so the concept of "social norms/expectations/etc" (whatever that even is) is totally meaningless to me.

If you put some effort and need help with the project, I'll try my best to help you. If you come demanding free support for your project, I'll just close the issue saying this is not the place.

It sounds like you and I are in agreement then. This is the same way I manage my projects as well. I think this is the best way to handle it. It gives respect to others without accepting disrespect from them.
