I respectfully disagree. Single-person projects that are not commercially motivated always have the risk of abandonment, regardless of how polished they seem. Depending on the problem itself, I could very well get bored after 8 minutes of effort, or 8 months of work. Some of my personal projects had a lot of polish because I really cared; I abandoned them because I stopped caring. (Also, adding polish was a great procrastination activity when you did not want to work on more important tasks.) > Hey world, here is a thing you should all care about and invest in. I think this is where our mentality differs the most. I never requested the world to care about my projects, which is why I did not feel any weight of responsibility when I abandon my projects.
