It would be better if you would. You can choose to not contribute anything back and only expect to get everything for free but if everybody chooses to be selfish you wouldn't get what you are getting. This is a ecosystem that relies folks investing resources like their own time or money. If you have the time to complain you have time to contribute. If you don't find this system suitable find another one. It's not like there is a death of choices. No point in constantly abusing the system while relying on it.
