GitHub trick: to sort an issue search by 👍, add sort:reactions-+1-desc On VS Code, the top one is a 2015 request to change the workbench font: 3,783 👍. Works across GitHub, with any reaction. So react with 👍 instead of commenting "+1": only reactions count.
GitHub issues of microsoft/vscode, searched with is:issue state:open sort:reactions-+1-desc. First result: #519, "Allow to change the font size and font of the workbench", opened in 2015, 602 comments, 3,783 thumbs-up. Next: mouse shortcut customization, 1,926.

Nice seeing an open source project just say “we’re recharging” instead of acting like everything runs on infinite energy. npmx is pausing maintainer activity on GitHub and closing Discord for a week. Feels rare. Maintainers and extended core team are humans too 💙

Dear #OpenSource folks, I'd like to offer #UX help to your teams. I've tried "making a small PR" on projects and it turns out that's TERRIBLE advice for a UX designer. The PR is usually misunderstood or ignored. I don't fault the teams for this! It's just the wrong tool for the job.
