@Gargron Can we have a list of "good first" issues?
I want to contribute but there's no good starting point at all.

Mastodon has a label called "fit for beginners" but it is stale. All these issues are before 2018: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3A%22fit+for+beginners%22

I asked the same question in your IRC but there's no good answer.

@Gargron maybe needs a Growth CEO

@Gargron

Why a third party? (typeform.com)

@Gargron Good luck! I doubt I have the skills sets you need

@Gargron @alexflower see if this is any useful to you

@Gargron I'm a Patreon member so that's how I help!!

@Gargron Many moons ago, I did have an updated LinkedIn-profile. It must be still out there. However I haven’t used it for ages. And it’s a commercial platform. You need some confirmation of who I am. I get that. I am retired. So I really don’t use LinkedIn. My profile there is no longer accurate. I am happy to provide you with a CV. I have been a moderator/ admin on IRC and still manage Facebook groups. Most things you would want to know about me are in the links in my Mastodon-accounts.

I do not have the skill to help, except in positive vibes, really appreciate those who fight the good fight to make this service happen. Many thanks.

@Gargron I suspect the best way to help Mastodon is to move away from large instances like mastodon.social. That would mean making it easier for more people/organizations to run instances independently. Perhaps have a partnership with AWS/Azure/GCP for a one-click installation.

@Gargron Thank you for reaching out, would love to help!

@Gargron applied

@Gargron Ich fange niemals an, Fragebogen auszufüllen, wenn ich sie nicht vor dem ersten Ankreuzen/Einsetzen etc. GANZ sehen kann.

@Gargron
It is not very smart to ask for name and email BEFORE seeing the choices. This unnecessarily discourages people who want to participate. Normally, your own data comes at the end.

Here is a screenshot so you can see what you can choose:
