I think it’s asinine to ask the developer who contribute to your project, literally taking the time of the day writing the code and submit PR to your project, to pay money to you.
I wouldn’t even bother contributing to the project at that point.
This is not the first time it happens with Dotnet Open Source packages, there are some pretty funky things going on namely:
Imagesharp (They re-license from Apache 2 to something like Community/Commercial licenses and threw a huge fit over it)
Fody (It expects the software contributors of Fody to be a patron.)

That one was an old documentation that some of the Chinese folks actually document a lot of quirks related to X11 protocol. I paid about $6000 for translator to work on translating that doc to English and I use it to build my own GUI Toolkit on Linux that I still use to this day.
