The vast majority of open source projects are a volunteer effort. Either you contribute and better the software or support its community, or you don't. But if you choose the latter you can't complain about the software.

Even though I use all of their software, I honestly don't care about the Linux, Java, Node, Emacs, or Python "communities" and it is frankly silly for open source developers to expect me to. I have real communities and responsibilities to devote unpaid labor to.
