Hi, I’m considering how to put together a contribute to open source contest, which will gets listeners of my podcast, but also whoever is interested, to submit to their favorite open source projects as a contributor. Thinking of offering prizes (possible multiple) based on pull requests, bug filing, documentation writing.

Want this to be a fun, and successful, contest over two or three months. I know some Nextcloud employees told me they once tried a contest and felt too many submissions were questionable at best in terms of effort.

What do you think, Lemmy peeps?

    This is actually my intention, to show examples of how to contribute and lead that into a friendly contest
