Hard pass, thanks. Just, don't expect to get paid for maintaining open source projects.

It's easy. Everyone knows the deal going in, and if somehow you missed that you're not going to get paid for this and you want out at any time -- you just stop.

If you made something of value someone else who cares enough will pick it up. Or it can languish and the earth will keep spinning. It's fine.
