Hi everyone, welcome, ect... It might go without saying but lemmy is open source! The platform is written in rust and typescript (which is a big pro for me). I'm sure we all have our little gripes with the platform, and those are fixed with collective teamwork :)

These are "good first issues", here is a contributing guide), and here is a chat where developers coordinate.

Let's make the best link aggregator!

That's how I started contributing.

I can make a clicking bot using bash. Is this enough? /joke

Serious now, is there any way for non-coders to help out?

[–] Cloak@lemmy.ml 11 points 2 years ago

Yes! The contributing guide mentions that there are plenty of other ways including design, translations, donations, and even just reporting issues you come across! Everything can be a huge help.

Pretty darn cool to see the federation working like this.

If i can find something i can help with i will do it, ok now i see, now i understand, because sometimes people have complaints and issues with the software but since lemmy is open source then it wil be easier to resolve these issues if people contribute to it
