As a maintainer “thanks” is actually pretty common.

Also companies send you chocolates/swag (but not money) pretty often which is cool.

That said it is still very nice. I opened at least 10 such issues myself because they cost me nothing but a few seconds.



Also I have to admit I take a lot of pride in thanks on SO questions I have answered and projects I maintain.

It’s also a big contrast to the toxic micro celebritism culture we often have.
