But i did write in big, capital letter that i am not a supplier in the licence, in the repo. See the last sentence.

  I don't know where you publish your code. You did imply at some point that you're not just talking about yourself, though: > We are volunteers, writing code and putting it online under these Licences. And yes, we put it online for people to use them. But we do not get anything from it. Some people publish their code on npm or as crates or whatever. These packaging systems are designed to allow people to download and use your code without reading it. Worse, they can end up using the code indirectly, without reading it. Do you think they see your repo or the README or the license? So what I'm saying is that if you take no responsibility (which I support), you should stop doing that (if you are), because it confuses your message. Although there's no money involved, these packaging systems encourage consumer-like behavior.

    And handicap all the sensible users who are willing to take responsibility for using those libraries? (in hobby projects, or otherwise) Sounds to me like a perversion of the intent of FOSS infrastructure.

      More users, more problems. People who just use your code without maintaining it don't benefit you. Often, FOSS infrastructure is part of the problem.
