Is anyone working on a project/looking to create a project that's open to collaborators?

The last post here had many interesting commenters so I'm curious what you all could be cooking up? I hope you leave a comment

I have a decent bit of spare time and a lot of ideas, if your looking to dm me then feel free :v

That's a very open-ended question. You may want to narrow it down a bit, unless you're truly just looking for anything.

Some helpful information would be your experience level (are you only looking to learn or is your goal to create something), what languages and frameworks you know, if you're looking to join an existing project or lead your own, what type of collaboration (collaboration could mean anything from working on the same git repo to remote pair programming), what you look to get out of it, how much time you're willing to invest, and other things in a similar vein.

    Sorry I should of been clearer. I meant the people from the last post all seemed interesting so I was wondering what projects you all were working on that are open to collaboration, even if I don't understand I find it interesting to hear about them

    also, I don't imagine lemmy is the right place to be looking for specific work/contracts haha

    When you say "the last post", please link to it since different people have wildly different client settings that may not show every community's posts in an adjacent fashion.

    Please be considerate: how would anyone know that you meant your last post? Why not the last post on c/programming? If you're asking a question, please try to make it easy for people to answer. A link is easy to add and avoids ambiguity.

    the website layout doesnt change per user, a mobile user will know where the mobile profile button is and likewise a desktop user, which even if they dont its literally directly below the title..... grow up and use your brain ffs

    Most (if not all) Free Software projects are open for contributions! Using and contributing to GNU Guix changed quite a bit in my life

    I imagine on most bigger projects youd either have to be invited/hired in to contribute but thank you ill check

    also if I may ask how did contributing to guix change your life? I hope for the better haha

    I don't think you need an invite, but I guess with most projects the learning curve is rather steep.

    It changed my life so that what time I formerly invested in tiny toy projects (mostly proof-of-concept stuff that would've taken too much time to finish into a cool prototype) I now use that time to contribute to something bigger. The satisfaction that comes from working on a big, consensus-driven project is hard to describe—I've never enjoyed such a thing before and wouldn't want to miss it

    That's a weird edit. What could have possibly caused it -

    (checks comments)

    Uh... the only enraged person I see is you.

    It's okay, we all have our moments.

    But please come back to this post when you're in a better headspace.

    You have to search through the comments. They're mad because people asked for a link to the referenced post.

    It still doesn't make sense tho.

    him calling me inconsiderate, being condescending and claiming no one could know I was talking about myself when originally i said "...the comments on my last post were interesting..." before i rephrased it due to the next comment made no sense

    i wasnt upset, its just odd behavior like I said- I get you don't have the unedited context though so its aight

    I wasnt upset at the time, its just weird to get upset over the fact I didnt preemptively decide I should include links incase some people might not know how to access a post while also having accessed my post while also not being able to goto my profile. hmm

    It just occured to me that no one thought to copy the link on OP's behalf... including myself. Whoops.

    The post OP was talking about

    You are looking for project ideas? I've made this huge-ass shell script for a asciidoctor package format (to make projects with media portabel). Then came the thought, i should redo this in python and then "while i'm on it, why not a universal lightweight markup package format?". But i don't have the time, so if you're up for it...

    And the thing i don't have the time because, it's complicated. Maybe in a few months.

    My project's currently on hold because I'm focusing my outside-of-work coding on stuff that helps me with my current job search. But once I'm done with that I'd be super interested in collaborating with my artist friends to get out of a UI/UX snag I've hit. Getting input from non-programmers on projects is always a really good way to move forward imo
