I was a bit late to seeing this video but I realise now that I missed seeing a diamond of a video for open source contribution

THANK YOU EDDIE!!

This is incredible, I like how you didn't explain how to do but rather let us read. I'm definitely going to contribute once I get my laptop fixed. Thanks Eddie for sharing this amazing video!

i love explainer videos like this (even if i have an idea about this now)

YouTube is usually the best platform to get people into open source (Twitter is for the techies, YouTube for a more general audience i guess)

[abdulramonjemil]

This is really awesome... Looks like there's no other excuse for me not to get into open source...

I'll start contributing today hopefully...

Thanks Eddie for such amazing insights . Very helpful ❤

[johanngambolputty]

Hmm, the idea of filmed reviews is pretty good actually, one of the benefits of open source and programming in general is deduplication of effort, maybe I'm just not familiar with it, but it feels like sharing expertise is oddly not always common in open source, at least not in this manner. I will have to check those out at some point

[akhilreddybollu]
