✨This talk was recorded at Lambda Days 2023. If you're curious about our upcoming event, check https://lambdadays.org ✨ What’s it like to work on Open Source projects? They’re all the same, aren’t they? No, they’re not - the longer I work on Open Source the more I realize how different the experience and feeling are for each one of them. Walk with me through some stories that I experienced in Open Source, the friends made and the lessons learned along the way. This should help you take your first steps in open source, be it as a contributor or maintainer as well as provide some useful insights even for more seasoned Open Source developers.
