a hot take, fwiw:
pedantic: not a fan. why "some", why not all of them?

eh? you wrote the article there? odd phrasing

left-right independent chronological ordering is weird and makes it hard to digest. suggest top to bottom single column would be easier to understand. you could make the OSS stuff a separate section or interleave.
Since 2010, you've worked at 3-4 different places for only a couple years each and worked on "frontend and backend systems", oh and did a bunch of OSS/volunteer work stuff. If I had to summarize the CV into one sentence that's what I get. I don't really see what skills you have, but you "used" Python, Django, Postgres, Typescript, Node.js, HTML
Canvas, Websockets, etc. Well, every internet user "uses" those.
It just sounds ... weird ... and fishy. What actual skills are you purporting to have? Why so much time not getting paid? Were you unemployable? Or much worse - very successful independently? (sarcasm, but sadly too true)
Personally, I'll always give the benefit of the doubt and talk to a person to see what's up. But this CV/Resume in it's current form isn't helping you.
I'm not going to lie, we may not be typical, but where I'm at, when you are young and bounce around every couple years for a couple jobs, I don't see so much of an issue. But when you are mid-senior career, you don't look right. Way too many short shallow gigs.
