Nobody gives a shit that it's a "side project". They paid good money to you for it. If it really was half baked, then why the fuck are you taking money for it in the first place. "I'm not against letting your users know that you're shutting down with a good amount of time before. What I'm against is that someone saying (the linked blogpost for example) that I HAVE TO maintain my side project because someone decided to depend on it." No. It stopped being a side project, and became a real project the second you started taking money for it.
