Farbeit from me to complain about a blog host that I pay nothing for, and contributed nothing to the design of, but there are things that get under my skin. Where's the balance between expectations and gratitude with open source applications like this?

Everyone bitches about Wikipedia all the time, but it's a great resource. Without the squeaky wheels, it wouldn't be so great. Where's the happy medium?
