ok, this is gonna be some comedy but Openreplay, because I actually work there :)

  That leads to a tricky question then... Would you still contribute if you weren't employed there? ;)

    This is a hard question. Before coming there I wasn't even aware of such tools existence, but if we consider me as someone working with such tools (i.e posthog/or) I would probably try to contribute. Right now I'm planning to do some contribs to Lemmy because I'm really liking the concept

Backstage - https://github.com/backstage/backstage/pull/17260 https://github.com/backstage/backstage/pull/17260 - because I wanted to learn few new things and this functionality might actually be useful for me.

my own thing, https://github.com/LiveDuo/destack https://github.com/LiveDuo/destack reason: people like it (but also drives traffic)

Only my own. A few with, hopefully, public interest: Setup a k8s cluster + elastic with ansible https://github.com/ggeorgovassilis/setup-k3s-ansible https://github.com/ggeorgovassilis/setup-k3s-ansible A collection of linux scripts, eg. remote controlling a wifi power plug, change sound volume in linux with touchpad gestures and more https://github.com/ggeorgovassilis/linuxscripts https://github.com/ggeorgovassilis/linuxscripts A JSP implementation (with tag files!) based on an interpreter instead of a compiler https://github.com/ggeorgovassilis/fauxjsp https://github.com/ggeorgovassilis/fauxjsp A Super Star Strek re-implementation https://github.com/ggeorgovassilis/superstartrek https://github.com/ggeorgovassilis/superstartrek A library that maps Java interfaces on REST services https://github.com/ggeorgovassilis/spring-rest-invoker https://github.com/ggeorgovassilis/spring-rest-invoker Mainly because I needed/wanted/could and there wasn't already something around that did the job.

KDE - https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved - Because KDE Plasma is the desktop environment I love and use the most and also I like a lot of KDE applications very much. Also the KDE community is one of the most friendly and helpful ones I encountered in the FOSS world and are working on many exciting projects/software.
