    I like to think that using FOSS daily, singing its praises to everyone and filing out the occasional bug report counts.

      It does. I wish more people recognized that bug reports are contributions.

      Probably only 1% of users file bug reports. That means for every 100 times a bug is found by a user, 99 of them won’t bother reporting it. Devs can’t fix a bug they dont know about…

        Going to time and effort to help improve something = contributing

        Absolutely love others testing my code for me because they find things I would’ve never run into myself
