Loved the episode and appreciated your learnings from your time at Mozilla and their open source ideology. I'm curious to know what improvements you'd like to see in the open source community, if any

Thank you! I feel like open source contribution could be much more of a learning pathway for people trying to acquire skills that could help them get tech jobs. There is unfortunately also a lack of support for people who's open source work keeps the web running - many companies profit from software that relies on open source tech but don't actually contribute to these whether financially or otherwise. There's a lot of interesting work going on around redefining open source in more ethical terms.
