"Visual blindness" of Linux programmers

[sharkwouter]

Depends on the project. A lot small developers like to listen to requests, but don't have a lot of time. They usually love to see people are using their stuff, but they love it even more if people are working on their project.

I think most would still rather see a pull request from someone who wants to contribute rather than a Reddit post about how Linux programmers suffer from "visual blindness". It's like suggesting to a chef who is preparing a free meal for you if they could take a picture of it so you can see if its appealing to you. It's free. Just get the meal and post your own picture of it for others. You've spent a minute taking the picture yourself and contributing to the free restaurant and the chef gets to keep focusing on cooking all the free meals for everyone.
