Django is the exact same way. 52% of it's $200K goal.
And in a other thread, people wonder why the entertainment industry won't give their content out DRM free.
Selfishly, I looks at things like a basic income as a means of getting to spend a year earning ramen money on valueable but non-economic projects.
Well that certainly escalated quickly. The anger issues seem misplaced. Not a good way to solicit contributions.
Software they were given. More cringe:

It sounds like Wes has given a gift and now expects something in return for it. r/niceguys anyone?

Berating your users publicly is not very becoming. I feel sorry for lebigot. He's really being mobbed now.
Looking at the comments, it reminds me of a poor tourist lady I saw surrounded by San Francisco beggars. She gave one some change out of kindness. She was mobbed by four more, who became upset because she had nothing for them.
I doubt she goes back to SF any time soon. Beggars everywhere. I doubt many quants will recommend improvements to Pandas any time soon. Beggars everywhere.
