Ive been looking for something to help the navidrome server do its thing, and this looks awesome, but there is one issue that was just opened and closed yesterday, it looks a little sus?
how does one go about digging through and discovering if this is malicious or not?
Welp, that issue has “officially” been deleted, as well as a followup issue asked by another person asking about that first issue feeling fishy.
While a full ‘deletion’ of such an issue is certainly unfortunate, I can kind of see how it gets to such a decision point.
You’re creating some software in the open, decide to ping some communities on reddit/lemmy and all of a sudden it seems like a disgruntled brigade is breaking down your door while you just wanted to show them the garden.
What for us looks like earnest sleuthing can feel like abuse/harassment from the other side simply due to the asymmetrical nature of the internet.
Would have probably still preferred a closed issue instead, but having a couple ‘niche-successful’ repos on github myself - I can at least certainly empathise.
understood! i will keep my eyes on this repo!
