[Hacktoberfest] Thoughts on why my repo was so secluded ?

Hello world!

Any thought on what could be reasons behind my failure this year being a maintainer ?

Here is the project I got two issues resolved (the most basic ones, really, cannot be simpler, you can check).

I know this project seem to be having a business aim at the end, but isn't this the case for most of open source projects anyway ?

I made other projects for sake of learning web development, and got so much help. I made them also to help people learn web-dev and collaborate with GitHub, I really put so much effort on README and exchanging with contributors and helping them most of the time.

Unfortunately, this one was a total failure ! I'm a bit (just a liiiiiiiiil bit) sad. But I want to know why you think I got no support, except one or two really minor PRs.

ps: The project is indeed a bit bloated; It can be one cause. Plus some environment variables constraints (like Google cloud account). This can discourage some of us, I understand.

Many thanks !
