I open a lot of issues but don't really commit code and I didn't get the badge.

  That feels like an oversight, what a shame not to acknowledge those contributions.

    Yep, no doubt there's a huge amount of valuable contribution archive material in pull request and issue comments as well. Some of these may be available soon via joint partner initiatives[1].

    Were issues also archived? This badge is specifically an indicator of whether code you committed made it into the vault, not whether you contributed to a project in some other way, or a for other reasons a nice person. I'm still cynical enough to think that this is mostly a PR move. If society breaks down to the point where we need to open up code vaults, I think massively distributed local archives will be more useful than some remote arctic data center.
