Between 2014 and 2022, DigitalOcean sent free t-shirts to developers who completed the Hacktoberfest challenge. For entirely sensible reasons related to sustainability and spammy entrants, they stopped doing physical merchandise in 2023. I'm the sort of hip fashionista who only wears free conference t-shirts. GDS@GDSTeamWe support open source. And we’ve got the t-shirts to prove it (thanks @…

On October 11th, WireMock Inc together with the London Java Community organised a hack day in our new office in London. This event was held as a part of Hacktoberfest. We got 16 participants and worked together on a few projects like YAML configuration support in WireMock, OpenTelemetry integrations, improving documentation and Kotlin DSL, and more.

Friends at @digitalocean sent me these for helping with #Hacktoberfest 2021. It's dolphinately cold enough to give them a spin! 🦈🦈🦈🦈

When k/website was hit with Hacktoberfest spam PRs, I saw a ton of folks from the community step up and close over 60 PRs in 48 hrs! 😍 I wanted to recognize their efforts for going above and beyond! 🎉 Sorry it's not a free shirt 😜 DM me for shipping /cc @markyjackson5

Hey #hacktoberfest beginners. I'm a very small scale maintainer and here are some things that you could do that I, personally, would value greatly! I suspect most maintainers would too. 1/s

#Hacktoberfest is intimidating and self defeating in my opinion. How is a beginner strictly expected to contribute to a thing that makes an impact? I say this as someone who figured how to make a pull request a month ago

A popular coding TV channel in India also mentioned, while talking about it, that all you have to do to get the T-shirt is add, "Awesome project" to the Readme. Literally telling people to do this BS. Source: Someone else on Twitter who is from India.

Idea: make PRs not count towards #Hacktoberfest by default. Allow Projects to opt-in (either project wide, or per-PR)?

Matt Brunt (@Brunty)Thu, 01 Oct 2020 11:17 +0000

Ahh yeah. #hacktoberfest2020 bringing the quality PRs again (not my repo) Note: I'm not saying docs PRs aren't quality, just that being innundated with low quality PRs like happens at the start of Hacktoberfest must be a nightmare for people with more popular packages.

Matt Brunt (@Brunty)Wed, 30 Sep 2020 20:37 +0000

So yeah this is why I've been talking about streaming so much. SOOOO who wants to watch me slowly unravel over the course of a month as I partcipate in 66 (SIXTY SIX) streams? It'll be a blast and I'll only cry a little bit
