As a maintainer of i18next, an open-source localization library, I can attest that there is nothing quite like the feeling of joy and pride that comes from contributing to the open-source community. Seeing others use and appreciate your work is a feeling like no other. But with great power comes great responsibility, and maintaining an open-source project can sometimes be a heavy burden at times.
Let me paint you a picture: It's a sunny Sunday afternoon, and you're ready to relax and enjoy the weekend. But then, your phone starts buzzing. It's a notification from GitHub, alerting you to a new issue or pull request. You try to ignore it, but the nagging sense of responsibility sets in. You can't help but wonder, "What if this is a critical bug that needs to be fixed ASAP?" And so, you reluctantly open your laptop, ready to tackle the problem at hand. That, my friends, is the joy and the burden of maintaining open source.
