This goes beyond open source, though. Someone doing this would act the same way when working in a team in a closed source project as well. I'm just saying that it's unacceptable in either case.

Open source is about fostering a spirit of sharing and collaboration. If developers don't align with those ideals, maybe open sourcing their work isn't for them.

"Open source" is abused too often these days as a marketing term, or something to fluff up your CV with, when it should be anything but that.

It sounds like maybe the open source ecosystem isn't for you, actually.

You don't get to dictate how others work, sorry.
