I tend to agree with this. I've always had a great deal of sympathy with OSS devs and maintainers, but if you've gone out of your way to evangelise people onto your platform (OSS or otherwise), then leave them high and dry, resulting in a load of complaints/bitterness, you have to bear at least some of the responsibility for that outcome.
