> (To all the free software folks to whom I said ‘Free Software is the same as Open Source’ — I’m sorry.) Though it's clear that the author is trying to remove these labels from their identity, there are a bunch of ideological movements that strive for being more than just open source. It'll be interesting to see which of these, if any, pick up momentum. * Indieweb * small Internet/web * free software * humane tech https://github.com/humanetech-community/awesome-humane-tech Some people just want things that work, and choose to focus on other issues. That's fine too.
In Removing ‘open source developer’ from my identity
When you feel pointless - find simple problems you already know how to fix, that you can solve with skills you already have. Github issue trackers are a good place to find them. Just pick projects you feel are doing something good. here are two lists to find projects - https://github.com/humanetech-community/awesome-humane-tech https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/organizations/ Don't go chasing the hardest ones, until you have reduced that feeling of pointlessness and have built back up some confidence.
