I also have this problem with the "where's your pull request" trend lately. Yes, I use open source project X. When I detect a bug, I'll definitely try to isolate the cause and reduce it to a minimum, and then log a Github issue with clear instructions on how to reproduce it. As a developer, I feel that this is massively helpful; if only the bug reports I get in my professional life were like this, instead of "yeah, there was an error - I have no idea how".
But no, I'm not going to put in 30+ hours to download, build and try to figure out where the bug is in the actual code. There are people who are in a better position to do that. If everyone who has a car problem had to submit a diagram to the factory on how they would change the car's design, we'd all be spending a lot of time doing stuff we're not good at.
