What do you do?😀

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

    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.

    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 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.

      How do maintainers react to this kind of contribution?

        all over the place, nowadays most accept it but some still reject and harass me

      That’s probably worse than not contributing.

    Mainly translation, writing my own social network (MIT license) focused on blogs, suggestions and code edits in a number of projects.
