Comment on I algorithmically donated $5000 to Open Sourceparent

If everyone use their own idiosyncratic algorithm for choosing OSS to donate to, it's going to be awfully hard to exploit.

There are probably only so many obvious metrics from which to pick and you wouldn't have to game them all, just pick the easiest ones and keep grinding. Fraudsters are usually motivated and not that dumb.
