Strypey<p>Code forges could significantly reduce the emotional labour of project maintainers by adding a separate tracker for "Bugs", next to the one for "Issues". Maintainers could then turn off notifications for Issues, without missing notifications about bugs. If people started making features requests or starting general discussions in the bug tracker, all the maintainer would need to do is move them to Issues and ignore them.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.nzoss.nz/tags/SocialCoding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SocialCoding</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.nzoss.nz/tags/CodeForges" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CodeForges</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.nzoss.nz/tags/Issues" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Issues</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.nzoss.nz/tags/BugTracking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BugTracking</span></a></p>
Karsten Schmidt<p>Rather than considering even just once the needs &amp; massive benefits for creators and maintainers, current open source software infrastructure, support tools, but also developer culture itself is completely biased and optimized purely for the benefit of consumers/users. Choosing a non-standard project structure (in my case a mature Google-style monorepo with almost 200 largely independent, but related projects/libraries/tools) is increasingly actively punishing my work and efforts in a variety of ways, e.g.</p><p>- non-supportive UIs for improved browsing/overviews of monorepos<br>- harmed discovery via search &amp; metadata limitations<br>- wrong, misleading and downgraded project ranking calculations (npm)<br>- misleading/broken automated project analysis (GitHub)<br>- lack of support by documentation tooling (TypeDoc)<br>- lack of support by package managers (Zig) and/or hosting platforms</p><p>All of these (and more) factors are actively hurting, disqualifying &amp; even completely nullifying much of my time &amp; energy spent on these projects, making my dream goal of working on open source fulltime increasingly intangible (because the above factors all have an actively downgrading effect which makes these project seem lower quality/relevance). To some extent this is purely because this work is stored in a project structure which is optimized for maintenance &amp; automation. Technically, we're speaking about _one_ additional level of nesting. An extra subdirectory! Otherwise, not any different than a "normal" repo. Still — BOOM — confusion, inflexibility &amp; punishment ensues! 😫😭</p><p>So many external aspects and people do not give a damn that a monorepo setup like this and the custom tooling created to automate the maintainance and cross-linking of all these ~360 packages (incl. example projects) are _the only sane way_ for me as a single person to efficiently manage &amp; release a codebase of this magnitude.</p><p>I was aware of some misunderstandings about monorepos on purely social/human level, but never saw it coming that the more I was expanding and deepening this work, the more this structure and scope would hurt the project &amp; my goals, because 3rd party infrastructure is just as weirded out by such a "blasphemy" as some people are...</p><p>I'd genuinely like to hear ideas what I could/should do to escape the vicious circle created by the above factors, which is a real motivation killer... I really do wonder how other maintainers (esp. would like to hear from indie devs)<br>handle projects &amp; codebases of this scale without running into these issues...</p><p>Thank you for any insights!</p><p>Ps. I really seem to have a feeble for "think different" and going against the grain with these things (or maybe being too early?). The first set of 20+ <a href="https://thi.ng" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">thi.ng</span><span class="invisible"></span></a> libraries for Clojure/ClojureScript were mostly written in a <a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/LiterateProgramming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LiterateProgramming</span></a> format, often combining source code with diagrams &amp; tables — this too led to many complaints and was partially to blame for not gaining much traction, even though these projects were singular offerings to that language community at the time (and funnily only became more popular _after_ 6-7 years, once I'd already left Clojure behind... go figure!)</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/OpenSource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OpenSource</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/MonoRepo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MonoRepo</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/Maintainance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Maintainance</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/Infrastructure" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Infrastructure</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/Documentation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Documentation</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/Tooling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Tooling</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/SocialCoding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SocialCoding</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/Expectations" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Expectations</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/NonStandard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NonStandard</span></a></p>

While I'd put some of the details in there differently today, I think the core point still stands: that free software maintainers are vulnerable to exploitation, both from Big Tech and, as is now evident, malicious attackers. And that the only way to protect them is to join into mutual support, solidarity groups.</p><p><a href="https://babka.social/tags/SocialCoding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SocialCoding</span></a></p>
