So many open-source projects have become so hardcore focused on politics and wokeism, alienating anyone who doesn't agree with them, that they can no longer focus on the software.
We created an easy way for you to find projects that are actively looking for contributions. This is based on tagged issues, activity, and available contributor guidelines.
Click on any ecosystem here: https://ecosystems.gitwallet.co.
Click on "Contribute to Projects" to see a list of projects that have open issues that are looking for contributors. Clicking the "Looking for Contributors" badge goes to their contributor guidelines.

I know a lot of people who are afraid of open-sourcing products because it means anyone can copy them quickly. I used to think that too, but then I saw a talk by the founder of cal dot com that changed my mind. Open source is actually an advantage, not a threat.

FYI I’ve invited everyone who’s requested 🫡, pls check your channel notifications

New channel rules feel a bit strange to me and not sure they work with the ethos of what /opensource was created for.
I understand why these changes are happening, but not clear what (or if) to do next for us here. I don’t like the idea of gatekeeping posts.
If you are able to post, please share your idea. If you want to post your thoughts but can’t 😞, pls dm and I’ll add you as a member.
