Question

As an undergrad student majoring in Computer Science, with an interest in Open Source, I’d like to ask and hear from the people in the community.

So, I’m curious: what issues, pain points, or frustrations do you have with Open Source (from any perspective—project creator, project contributor, or something else)?

As I am in the process of making my first open‑source contribution, I would appreciate elaboration on why the thing you chose is a pain or issue if it’s not obvious to a beginner.
