I wholly agree with your viewpoint in this comment.
There is a prominent "Fork" and "Clone" button in every GitHub repo. If you're so fucking sick of the lack of support from the maintainer, fork it, fix the flaws that you've found, and assume some of the responsibility for the project.
This whole situation is a bunch of people getting angry because of what they view as a lack of accountability. That's preposterous - the nature of GitHub and open source makes it super easy for you to assume some of that accountability yourself. The fact that so many people chose to get upset rather than assuming accountability speaks volumes to me.
