My project has been used by random companies at some point, never again, I can't recommend it to anyone. At first it was nice to have my stuff getting real world use but the never ending issues asking for new features and pressure to keep everything up to date was exhausting. It was a relief to archive it, never again.

The curl lean maintainer blogged about how most car manufacturers use curl yet none donate and also how sometimes companies expect him to do work and bs for free.
Ignore them unless they pay you.
