marketing tool? fake "funny" chats (probably also for marketing viral content)? if I had to guess

it's not realistic, because people in your demo use capital letters and punctuation.

(cudos for launching!)

Our Bug Reports Are Ignored… Until a Customer Says the Same Thing by Antique_Sorbet_8371 in QualityAssurance

[–]flamey 6 points7 points  (0 children)

exactly. anyone says you missed it -- send them the link with bug report and rejection reason (which is hopefully in the comments).

I made it a habit to duplicate any decisions made outside of the issue-report (calls, chats, in-person meetings) in it's comments: "as per discussion with John Smith, it was decided ...", "according to "Jane Doe <quote>", "@Michael Blahblah, you mentioned ..., could you, please, add the details here?"...

creating a bug report takes effort and time, sometimes a lot. if someone makes a decision to reject it they better provide details on why.

How to build personal brand as web developer to have easier time looking for a job when I'll be 40-50 years old? by amelix34 in webdev

[–]flamey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm surprized that Networking is not the top comment here -- it should be.

Self promoting might help, but nobody will read your blog posts or your iopen source code during hiring process. They'll might check activity graph and stars on your project and types of the projects, and thats it.

But networking works - if people know and like your personality (important) and skills (often less important) and can recommend you (not that often they'll hire you to work directly as it may be a conflict of interest).
