  • Hey, 28 is a fantastic time to go to school. You’re more mature, you know what you want, you’re not being thrust into making a decision when you’re barely 17.

    I really envy people who are able to go back to school later in life (also 28 is still young, you’re doing great either way).

    Everyone is navigating their own life in the best way they can and you’re not alone in this. You’re at school to learn and for yourself, no one else can judge you for that.




  • Mind you I’m happy that they seem driven to contribute and want to know more about the process and how to potentially help. It’s really just the vibe of the post that’s off putting.

    For contributing to the project, you can always submit issues to discuss next steps or possible ideas and implementation. It’s not just “here’s code please merge”. Being a contributor to an open source project also involves participating in discussions about the future of the project which you can usually do through mailing lists or issues for most projects.

    For Lemmy specifically there is already a process for feature requests and discussions here


  • Not to sound rude or anything - but I’m getting big corporate vibes from this post which really isn’t what Lemmy is trying to be. If you want to offer that kind of support, look at getting involved with individual instances. They are probably closer to a product than Lemmy is. The Lemmy project doesn’t need that kind of corporate structure to it. It’s not a charitable organization or Reddit 2.0.

    Furthermore Lemmy users are not customers nor is Lemmy a product and it worries me that you would want to see it in this lens.
