So you're screwed if you don't have any connections. In that way it's just like meat space.

exactly this, verification should always been on the code

if someone fresh wants to contribute, now they will have to network before they can write code

honestly i don't see my self networking just so that i can push my code

I think there are valid ways to increase the outcome, like open source projects codifying the focus areas during each month, or verifying the PRs, or making PRs show proof of working etc,... many ways to deter folks who don't want to meaningfully contribute and simply ai generate and push the effort down the real contributors

Nobody is screwed in the Ghostty project. Simply open a discussion to discuss your idea.

Yeah, it's important to note that opening an MR is not the only way to communicate. It seems like many people in this thread are forgetting that.

>>moogly+(OP)
This is untrue.

It explains how to get vouched. You need to have a person vouch for you after you open an issue with your proposed change. After you are vouched, you may raise a PR.
