This list shows an example of the power of open source across the GIS spectrum, into the largest spatial software commercial vendor, bringing value to us all
For instance, when running a raster GP tool in ArcGIS Pro v3.2, the backend might be GDAL algorithm - with an ESRI wrapper - working hard; there are ~1,500 specific line item acknowledgements for this piece of software alone…

How do you want to be recognised for contributing to open source? What makes you feel valued?
One of the common critiques I often read about BSD systems is: "It doesn't run well on my laptop." I get the frustration: my own FreeBSD installation on an old MacBook Pro has been a series of headaches, whereas Fedora installed effortlessly with few remaining issues.
But should we judge an OS by how it runs on our personal laptop?
In my experience, BSD systems have caused far fewer issues on my servers compared to other platforms like Linux, despite my greater experience with Linux. On one server, for some reason, Linux would kernel panic hours after booting. FreeBSD runs without a hitch. If my experience were limited to that one server, I might falsely conclude Linux is terrible, which I certainly wouldn't claim.
I believe there's a right tool for every job. If your hardware is BSD-compatible, the choice is clear. Otherwise, instead of faulting the OS, it’s better to find the best option for your hardware or, if possible, contribute to improving support.

We hosted a Django 5.0 testathon today (where we run the test suites of third party packages against the beta release of Django) and were just about to create a PR to django-environ when we realised that @adamchainz had beaten us to it!
I swear that man is everywhere
