- JoshCole 16y agoI think most people look for it, but that the poster is talking about due diligence. It is easy to read that someone contributed to open source and give them brownie points. It takes a bit of effort to find the work they did, figure out what its doing, and determine whether they actually did a good job. People try to conserve their mental resources, so they don't always put in that effort.
