So in the spirit of this community and not just to focus on the Reddit... issues... I thought it might be nice to get a topical conversation going in here.

Basically, what open source projects are you currently working on or are you heavily involved with?

I think it would be nice to see what projects people have on the go, get some publicity out there and otherwise talk about stuff that we should be discussing here.

Umbraco is a fantastic open source project, as well as a great example of how open source can support a profitable company as well, through support, training, and certification programs.

I don't use it as much these days, as its not part of my day job, and for my hobby projects I'm using static site generators, I appreciate what Umbraco has, and how they do it. It really is great software, for users and developers.

It set my expectations a little too high I'd say! I really appreciate how they turned it into a profitable product too and it shows they have commitment to service when most of their secret sauce can be used by anyone.

I think they now have a headless version called Heartcore but, as far as I know, it's a proprietary SaaS solution. Shame, that might have been of interest to you otherwise. I also use static site generators personally, it's less to worry about.
