So. I maintain few open source vuejs components for my company.

We use a lot of open source so when we can and is not conflicting with the work schedule we open source stuff that we do for ourselves, document them and publish them on npm.

All fine, actually all nice!

To be honest the components are not super used but today I got an issue on one of them: "I want this pleaaase implement"

I want? WTF? Am I nervous or this is not the correct approach? What open source santa Claus? I understand that some people may not take the burden of submitting a pr (after i wrote an entire doc section about how to develop the component more) but starting with: I want??

Not okay. NOT OKAY!

    Just because it is open source does not mean that it is free, if people want a particular function they can pay someone to do it, do it themselves or move on. Or if they are lucky it is on the road map and can wait till it comes around.

    At least it's no "I can't believe this can't do X, this is the worst! Be using $ProprietaryAlternative unless X gets implemented!"
