and big corporate didn't pay to open source projects,

More like people picking fights with the dev as well.

It's unfortunately been this way for a long, long time. Though it does seem to have gotten more frequent in recent years. I've been running PortableApps.com for nearly 2 decades and, in that time, I've been sworn at, harassed, doxxed, received death and rape threats, etc. My personal favorite was a user who accused me of donating a kidney to my father because I thought I was better than everyone else and to try to garner donations. Despite the fact that I donated it years before PortableApps.com existed. Just this week I had someone mad a meet for not updating an app due to the fact that I am recovering from a concussion.

P/S : we may have to warn any people who want to do open source.

Nah, you should release your stuff, and encourage everyone to release, as Open Source license when and where as possible. Especially the toy stuff.

Just don't have any delusions of what that means.

If you don't care who will like or use it,
what is the reason to publish online ?

Because I/we can.
