Thanks for the mention! I'd also include usemage.ai/ -> it lets you create a full-stack React/Node.js app from a short description, plus it's completely free!

Keep up the great work ๐Ÿฆพ

Yeah, this comment is spam.

Naw, this post is. It's got a re-implementation of GitHub trends, but it misses the mark even there. It's really spammy to just have a bunch of lists that add nothing to the conversation. If folks wish to make lists that they could just as easily get from a web search or GitHub trends, they should just write an aggregator.

As I see it, this post is just the latest of the spammy lists that folks insist on continuing to post here.

Judging from the article, this should be a simple article written to promote the first project.

Thread Thread

Thatโ€™s precisely it. Many groups are promoting themselves by posting spammy listicles like this which add no value and donโ€™t really even succeed at promoting the groupโ€™s projects.

Itโ€™s just disappointing how common this practice has become.

I'm not sure I understand how this list is spam? One of the first open-source opportunities that caught my eye was #6, Wasp. I checked out the repo and there's multiple bugs listed in the Discussions tab that anyone could openly try and resolve. They even have a Contributing.md on how to help squash any bugs or add new features.

Thread Thread

Yeah, but this site is now littered with dozens of this exact same mindless list-making. So many lists that do nothing but help the author self-promote. They donโ€™t further any discussion.

I do think the lists amount to spam, especially given the clickbait titles. The author of this one has never posted anything other than a list.

Thread Thread

I see what you mean. There's probably some truth in that, but for people looking for open-source contribution opportunities, this seems like a good list. I don't frequent this site all that much, so I don't have any room to speak on these types of posts being a dime a dozen on here. It did help me locate some open-source leads I might not have found otherwise, though

@manchicken. No one is forced to read this article... Don't like what I'm writing? Then write your own content.

I think it's extremely useful and fun for devs to have aggregated lists that someone else took the time to make. Especially in this listicle where I specifically found good first issues for junior devs to get started with.
