github-drama

This is a curated collection of "dramatic" github interactions.

Contributing to github-drama

Make sure to link to the issue or pull request in your commit message. This causes a link to the github-drama commit to appear in the dramatic interaction, if it hasn't been locked yet. That way, the participants of the drama know that they're being dramatic. This can have a number of effects on a person:

They realize they're being dramatic, and take a step back from the drama. This reduces their anxiety and blood pressure.
They're embarrassed that they've been called out as being dramatic.

How do I find drama?

Go into a GitHub project's issues, and sort by "Most commented" or "Most reactions".

What qualifies as drama?

There's no agreement on what's considered dramatic enough to be included in github-drama. Everyone has a different sense of humor. There are plenty of "non-serious" github threads, where the usual github politeness gave way to reaction gifs and one-word replies, turning into something like a 4chan thread but less funny.

This repository follows the guideline that if anyone in the thread appears to be getting worked up about something, it can be considered for inclusion here. If a repository's maintainer has locked conversation on a thread, that's also a good indicator that it could be included here.
