Show HN: Lessons learned from my 10 year open source project

I've been developing SpiderFoot (an OSINT/recon tool) for 10 years now, so wanted to share my story and try to distill some lessons learned in the hope they might be helpful to others here who might be considering writing/open-sourcing their own tools. Here's the post: https://medium.com/@micallst/lessons-learned-from-my-10-year-open-source-project-4a4c8c2b4f64 And the repo if you want to check it out: https://github.com/smicallef/spiderfoot -- TL;DR version of lessons from the post.. Lesson 1: Writing open source software can be very rewarding in ways you can’t predict Lesson 2: Be in it for the long haul Lesson 3: Ship it and ship regularly Lesson 4: Have broad, open-ended goals Lesson 5: If you care enough, you’ll find the time Lesson 6: No one cares about your unit test coverage Lesson 7: There’s no shame in marketing Lesson 8: Clear it with your employer Lesson 9: Foster community Lesson 10: Keep it enjoyable -- I hope you find it useful and inspires some of you to get your project out there! Feel free to ask me any questions here and I'll do my best to answer.
