Not sure where all the negativity is coming from. Its now opt-in.
As someone who did it early in my career, I found it really enjoyable. I did win a t-shirt. BUT I also gained a new found appreciation for OSS which I dont think I would have otherwise had an opportunity to find. My work gave us the time to contribute to OSS that month.
Now, Im regularly giving back to numerous repos as I was educated via the program and have much more confidence to contribute and propose changes.
And I still proudly wear the shirt every week ;)
- asdajksah2123 4y agoI did not win a t-shirt, but Hacktober fest led to me making my first approved OSS PR fairly deep into my career, and my OSS involvement has only increased since then. So I am quite excited about the latest edition and hope to at least win a T-shirt, but generally increase my OSS involvement this October and beyond.
