GitHub: Over 80% of repository contributions come from outside the U.S.
- eindiran 7y agoI think the link points to a photo in the article right now. This is the correct link: https://venturebeat.com/2019/11/06/github-over-80-of-repository-contributions-come-from-outside-united-states/ https://venturebeat.com/2019/11/06/github-over-80-of-reposit... Also, looking at the original report, the headline is not true. 80% of users are from outside the US, not 80% of contributions. https://github.blog/2019-11-06-the-state-of-the-octoverse-2019/ https://github.blog/2019-11-06-the-state-of-the-octoverse-20... From the graph here (https://octoverse.github.com/ https://octoverse.github.com/), it looks like there were ~2.5M open source contributions, with just under 1M from the US, so over 60% of open source contributions come from outside the US.
