To all the Lemmy & oss contributors reading this: I am grateful for your service. your simplest & smallest act makes these tools so powerful, that people of the world can use them to better their & other’s lives. Thank you.
I answer kindly to issues and questions from inexperienced users (they often go unanswered), even the most stupid (RTFM) or blunt ones (SHIT IS BROKEN!), so the maintainers don’t have to.
The most I’ve been able to do is advocacy, bug reports, and feature requests. I’m monolingual so no translation for me, but I am a pretty capable writer. If anyone has any suggestions for how to help out, I’d gladly take them.
Mainly translation, writing my own social network (MIT license) focused on blogs, suggestions and code edits in a number of projects.
Submitting bug reports, helping other users switch to free software, advertising free software, advocating for it, helping others with issues they have regarding free software

Translations mostly, a little documentation, and bug reports. I also contribute code from time to time. I am a programmer but not an active code contributor.
I contribue by donating, writing documentation and fixing typos and wording. I also open bug reports and feature requests.

most of my contributions are adding code of conducts and educating maintainers on non-inclusive language using woke
Thank you for the software :3
That’s probably worse than not contributing.
How do maintainers react to this kind of contribution?
all over the place, nowadays most accept it but some still reject and harass me
I only really interact with lemmy and a few open-source games. so I guess as far as lemmy goes, I moderate on lemmygrad. and as far as games go, I play and sometimes review them.
I’m not exactly a non-programmer, but I usually don’t program, so I don’t consider myself to be a developer. I normally will try to help out with adjacent tasks like compiling software and reporting bugs whenever I can. Over the years I’ve helped fix a lot of bugs.

I would like to help in more direct ways. For now, im just trying to keep some communities active.

For me it’s mainly translation.
