Similar feeling here. I released something open source, others started contributing to it (which is rare! so that's awesome!) but their commits started breaking things for others. That meant I'd get the complaints, and I had to spend a lot of unpaid time fixing their bugs. There were ongoing debates as well from contributors (and non-contributors!), and that's how I learned what the word "bikeshedding" means :)

Instead of giving something for free to the world, I'd accidentally created an unpaid job & ongoing drama for myself (ie a net-negative for me personally, instead of at least being a neutral / zero).

With my commercial software, I'm being paid by customers to help them, and the better I make the software, the more likely people are to buy it. The incentives align. Those paying customers are mostly nicer to me as well, some wonderful compliments. And none of them have ever debated GPL vs BSD vs MIT with me - they just want the software to work, work well, and be beautiful & easy to use.
