MinIO accepted contributions from people outside the company who did work on it for free, usually because they expected that minio would keep the software open source.

The last open source version of MinIO didn't disappear when they stopped maintaining it.
Free software developers are gifting you something. Expecting indefinite free work is not mutual respect. That's entitlement.
The common is still there. You have the code. Open source is not a perpetual service agreement. It is not indentured servitude to the community.
Stop trying to guilt trip people into giving you free work.
