How is this unfair? I haven't contributed to many projects precisely because I think it's disrespectful to the maintainers to submit anything but non-trivial, typo-free and with passing tests.
There's even a guide on contributing to open source software (and also about opening issues) that says this.
- quadrifoliate 6y agoMy point is that the same standards are not applied blindly, and that South Asian male names are judged more harshly that other ones for an equivalent PR. And also, who said that your practices are the canonical ideal? Lots of people do get their first PR as a minor typo fix, and go on to do more significant things.
