Hi Martin, I am pretty new to the suckless community.
I appreciate what you wrote in that post :-) Regarding the diy attitude I agree with you. On the other hand, regarding features and bugs, people sometimes don’t know and they often tend to assume you are a large and evil corporation with a lot of resources available. It happened to me with a small video game I have out there for free. I think that people need to be told ( politely ) that they are dealing with a single individual doing it for free in his free time. Then they end up being more understanding.
