Overview

Being invited to the team

I made that masterpost issue with every bug and missing feature from the initial beta release, with a big checklist and organized into areas of interest.

dansup saw that and decided to invite me to join the pixelfed organization on github.

Responsibilities

Issue triage

I implemented the current issue tagging system.

Issues have tags by area, Milestone by rough version target, Project by which feature they pertain to

Design consultancy

dansup does a lot of experimenting with building out mock features, and I'm there to tell him which ones are good ideas and which ones are bad ideas.

Release planning

0.x betas each usually focus on one feature and related development around it. When the focus changes, a new 0.x beta will be tagged. We have a few more betas left, for circles, and for polish. If it weren't for me, dansup would have tagged 1.0 already and media attention would have been lackluster.
