IDK about most. But, I’ve seen many OS contributors say they’re looking for work. Seen one recently saying he won’t be contributing much to the project anymore because he’s housing-insecure. Seen maintainers for popular projects get laid off and are now looking for work. Seen people with 10+ and 20+ years of experience not being able to find a job after many months.
“most” open source project contributors are looking for work? Lol ok bud
Yeah. Broken economy, broken world, etc etc. it’s like a bad dream that won’t end. IRL is the doomscroll now.
I don’t blame you, just be thankful you’re so out of touch you find it hard to believe.
