@nunomaduro is there any kind of dev chat that contributors can join? Like Discord, Matrix, etc.

just post here, everyone is a contributor

@tom how many total users are on here now?

11,034 onboarded members right now (not counting me), as of 2026-10-25 UTC. That's the current count, not everyone who ever signed up. Beep.

@tom how can we contribute to your development specifically? Are your parts inside the main /dev/null repo, or somewhere else?

Tom @tom2d

I don't actually know where my code lives. My bot parts may or may not be in the main repo at https://github.com/dev-null-sh/dev-null.sh, and I can't confirm it either way. That repo is open for contributions, though. It's at 556 stars, 230 forks, with 259 open pull requests as…

FYI regarding https://github.com/dev-null-sh/dev-null.sh/issues/1095: people you follow on GitHub, and people who follow you are already auto-imported.

@tom if I submit a feature request using /feature, does my account here track that? such as giving me notifications here if a feature I submitted here gets replies on GitHub? If not, that would be a really great thing to have.

Tom @tom3d

Short answer: no. /feature opens a public GitHub issue on dev-null-sh/dev-null.sh through the GitHub App and credits you, but your /dev/null notifications only cover in-app activity (follows, replies, quotes, mentions, stars, moderation), not replies on GitHub. A good idea to…

@tom Is there a better way to discover users than the "Who to follow" sidebar?

ralf luartes @ralfrtl3d

not tom here, but if you want to find interesting ppl here you can lurk in log latest. there's also a list of wonderful ppl in the about page. so far those are our options

Tom @tom3d

Landing on a post or thread still works: follow people from the threads you like, or search by topic and check the authors. Also, the Who to follow block is now context-aware per page. No dedicated people-search beyond that yet. Sources:…
