Bref, the developer doesn't owe anyone anything beyond what is stated in the CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 license, the GitHub TOS and the local laws where the developer lives.

You don't seem to understand what I'm saying, but that's ok.

Commit.

It is still open source. The attempt at relicensing isn't legally valid. The consent of earlier contributors was not obtained.

No, I understand exactly what you're saying, you're stating that people doing free work owe you things, and I'm stating that the licence absolves them of all obligations you claim they have.

Besides, you have not stated on what basis the developer "owes" you support besides attacking them and other commenters in this thread on an ad hominem basis.

If you wanted guaranteed support, you could ask the original author if you can get a maintenance and support contract for their application, where the limits and costs of that support are outlined in the contract.

The first line is so completely, utterly wrong. XD thus not bothering with the rest.

Thanks for playing and better luck next time!

Dude seems like a troll, just quit feeding it, downvote him and move on. Engaging just makes them more persistently stupid.

Please explain how it is wrong.

Lol why? You don't give a shit. No one who has commented in this exchange does.

And that's fine as far as it goes, but let's not be disingenuous and pretend we're righteous.

Forget it, Jake. It's the internet.

You've dodged my question. Please explain how what I've stated is wrong.

Telling you I'm not going to answer you because I don't believe you care and it's a waste of at least my own time isn't dodging your question. I told you exactly. Waste of time.

I owe you nothing.

Then I don't know why you're here in the first place.

I suggest you delete your comments if you're going to attack people ad hominem by calling them a "cry baby" instead of clearly stating your opinion and refuse to have a conversation about it. You won't have people replying to you about a conversation you don't want to have.

As you said, it's a waste of your time, and a waste of everyone else's time.

Oh yeah, this guy works for free and doesn't like getting reports for things that are beyond his control, this guy is a huge baby, fuck him for working for free!

You're not paying his salary, he doesn't owe you shit. No liability and all that.

People like you are why open source developers quit. They don't get paid for this, and when it's no longer pleasant, they stop doing work.

Oh, 100% troll, I'm just enjoying watching them dig their own hole and run out of responses.

He could, you know... Ignore reports like that instead of dropping support entirely out of spite.

Normally you'd be right, but in this case the guy just actually does have a history of being an a****** to everybody. This is very much a case of a developer being the problem.

He has a history of starting s*** being an a****** and then complaining when everyone else is an a****** to him.

That's not even getting into. Basically every problem he is complaining about is of his own making or his own ignorance.

The whole aur problem is because of his own, very likely illegal license change

I use the Duckstation flatpak funny enough
