Dude just stated how much of his free time he is willing to provide to others for free and put a line on what he is willing to commit.

And somehow this thread thinks that's harsh or petty?

Is literally any person complaining about this guy setting reasonable boundaries paying him money to do this work?

No they're a bunch of entitled assholes who need a fucking wake up call.

Please see my edit. You’re correct. No one is entitled to someone else’s work.

It’s the same with piracy advocates, actually. People should be able to put boundaries around their work.
