Let’s please not forget that some people donate time and money because it gives them personal satisfaction to help out with something that is meaningful to them.

it gives them personal satisfaction to help out with something that is meaningful to them.

What about the cases where "what is meaningful to them" conflicts with "what is meaningful to the others"?

I said on a sibling comment but it bears repeating: I am not talking about someone who enjoys a hobby and goes on to create/mod a community about it. I am thinking about the cases where someone finds themselves as part of a large community and realizes that the majority of the members keep pushing you to things you either don't want to or disagree with.

Then we are talking about two different things. The post that I responded to did not make that clear. You should be more careful about using generalizations.

I'd say that they are the same thing, just in different contexts. But okay, if I wasn't clear it's on me to fix it.
