Re:xz: A Microcosm of the interactions in Open Source projects by InvaderFizz on Sunday March 31, 2024 @12:56PM (#39885864)
With a personal repo I maintain, I once had someone look me up on linked in, and then file a support ticket with my employer demanding I reply to his issue on github. He was asking for handholding following a clearly documented process and ignored all the warnings.

Needless to say, I did not assist him in any way and closed the issue as wontfix.

I've also had people demand that I expand the narrow scope of my project to cover a whole class of devices with completely different APIs, instead of the sole focus on the series from the same manufacturer of devices I own and use. Closed as wontfix as well with a clear statement that I will not be expanding the scope, but am more than happy to link to their project covering it.
