Determined to make things right, I told him I would refund him 1000% of the original price he paid, so that the final amount can express how much I really care about making sure he was happy with his experience.
The service was free.

To attract them onto a paid tier? Well then you lost that potential customer by being a smartarse.
Of course he knew it was free. But he took time to express his dissatisfaction directly to you. Most people would grouse on a forum and never give direct feedback.
Hi, your service as it is would not be adequate to my use case, here's why if you want to know and possibly change it.
and:
Can't believe you do X instead of Y, what a waste of time, this doesn't help me at all.
Maybe it's to make "some" people happy with what something he did for fun? Not all of them and not for everything?
Do you offer any service for free? Why don't you bring me a coffee right now? Exactly, you don't offer only a service to make people happy... You would do it because it was accessible, possible for you and yeah, to make some people happy.
Are there any resources / services where such developers can get paid on request and they work on the issues after that ?
