RE: https://floss.social/@FOSSBackstage/116967997753078487 Loving the shares from the back catalog of #FOSSBack! This talk about recruiting contributors from 2023 is particularly relevant today with so many maintainers overworked and burning out. Related: this lovely report on maintainer burnout from @mirandah@mastodon.social at https://stewardshiplab.org/reports/burnout-in-open-source-a-structural-problem-we-can-fix-together
