friendly reminder that nostr is open source , and your favourite client is also probably open source.

PRs are always preferred over complaints or requests for new features.

for most people, this requires a shift in your thinking.

we’ve grown accustomed to using free software without ever giving back because we were in fact the product. kinda how pigs never question why the farmer never charges them for the feed

“but i don’t know how to code”

okay, learn. help build the world you want to live in rather than sit around and complain that other people aren’t doing it fast enough or not doing it the way you like.

It’s also about how users bring up feedback/criticism. Good detailed bug reporting is really appreciated and helps fix issues quickly.

“This is broken” or “this doesn’t work” only results in wasted dev time as they try to figure out what “this” is and whether or not it is actually not functioning correctly.

💯 plenty of ways to help even if you can’t code

fair but there’s also a place for noncoders to provide constructive feedback 🙂

depends on the balance. you can still drown in a sea of constructive feedback if people aren’t showing up to help build

What is PR?

I assumed paid relay

PR: pull request. it’s the way to submit changes to an open source software project
