Thank you for sharing this experience! As a non-technical person who cares about open source it is great to see other routes to getting involved.

The organization and "people skills" in a community are often overlooked but they are crucial to the success of any project.

6 steps to reduce the carbon footprint of your website

I'm a UX designer, and the sustainability of web design is something that is not spoken about nearly enough in our world! With the feeling like computing is cheap and engineering can work miracles, we can sometimes find ourselves falling into a trap of using things like animations as a "this looks cool" rather than a purely usability choice. Awareness of how this additional compute power affects the environment is something we should talk more about. Thank you for sharing!
