There's a massive elephant in the room when it comes to . How do you recruit folks to help with building?

Just why is your community pipeline limited? Could it per chance be your public behaviour as the BDFL?

I mean you realise your community is more than just the code right?

If you are the kind of FOSS person who is mortally offended by developers/moderators/projects asking for money so they can eat sometime this month.

Take a good hard look at yourself. Try to look outside your bubble. Not all folks can take the time to volunteer their free time.

Maintainers should be paid. Full stop.

Exposure and "It's good for networking for your career", is exploitation and frankly, I'd like to reduce that in FOSS.

It's the annual fundraiser for @conservancy.

If you aren't sure why you should help to fund the Software Freedom Conservancy here are two reasons that help

  1. Supporting @outreachy with its increasing number of interns.

  2. Hiring team members to get projects like @reproducible_builds to continue pushing the forefront of software reproducibility.

Plus donate before 2024/01/15 and the total gets matching funding.
