given the absolute fucking state of the open source community in general, and the fact that hacker news of all places is where the majority of new open source projects get discovered, is there any interest in starting a community here where folks can announce and solicit for help with their open source projects?
we could possibly use NotAwfulTech, but:
- I kind of want to keep self-promotion out of that community
- my code is probably awful for everyone else, that’s why I’m seeking contributors
let me know if anyone’s down for the new community or wants to expand the scope of NotAwfulTech to include stuff like this. if you’re on team new community also feel free to suggest a name
If you haven’t you should read Victor Papanek’s Design For The Real World or How Things Don’t Work
Thanks for the rec!
Always happy to recommend his work. It’s a shame sometimes his ideas are considered silly or far-fetched because they go against scale-up thinking
