In Ask HN: Who is hiring? (March 2022)
I think part of the challenge looking at these metrics is the project versus repo structure. For instance, contributions to security are included in the elasticsearch repo but not in the core OpenSearch repo e.g. https://github.com/opensearch-project/security/graphs/contri... But I still think having a bunch of folks contribute isn't trivial and worth highlighting (57 is a ton for many projects) and anytime I see a truly OSS project at this scale I think it's a good thing.
