"Only" 24k spam PRs. Face palm
- Aeolun 6y agoOnly 4.8% spam PRs better? The absolute number means nothing. In a sea of 5B PRs, 24k would look impossibly good.
- seba_dos1 6y agoDoes "only 24k MRs had maintainers that bothered to properly mark them as spam per hacktoberfest's guide" sound so "impossibly good" as well?
- dkersten 6y agoThe absolute number definitely does mean something! Its work created for maintainers. Checking and tagging a PR takes non-zero time. Creating 24,000 invalid PR's is a massive burden on the open source community.
