Something that surprised me this week - I reached out to a maker doing an epaper watch project. He wasn't aware of my FOSS projects and was pleasantly surprised when I shared a link to the repos. Is this a general problem of discoverability? Lack of even looking? I do searches of Github once in a while to see what people are working on. Am I the only one? Does it take active promotion to share the existence of new FOSS projects?
