I have a pretty simple project with 2.4k stars, and have met nothing but good people eager to help, and bending over backwards to help me help them. My project's "niche" may have something to do with it.

- sergiotapia 6y agohttps://github.com/sergiotapia/magnetissimo https://github.com/sergiotapia/magnetissimo - niche is: "self-hosted apps"
- marcandre 6y agoApplication domain may have something to do with it, language also. As a maintainer of Javascript and Ruby libraries, the difference in entitlement and cluelessness is remarkable.
- tonyedgecombe 6y agoThe Ruby community has always struck me as friendly and welcoming.

Basically just need to make the Github repo public. The one thing that gives me pause is the prospect of having to manage a bunch of unfriendly feature requests and bug reports. Here's hoping we find ourselves in a virtuous niche.
