## Contributing to github-drama
This repo is intended to point out comical interactions that come up in the world of
software development, and not to harass anyone. Sometimes tensions build up in
online interactions, and the intention of github-drama is to allow
participants to take a step back from the drama and say to themselves, "damn,
I need to chill".

### 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 gives
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.

a good indicator that it could be included here.
There's no agreement on what's considered dramatic enough to be included in github-drama. There are plenty of "non-serious" GitHub threads, where the usual GitHub politeness
gives way to reaction GIFs and one-word replies, turning into something like a 4chan thread, but less funny. Common signs of drama: many unconstructive comments, many downvote
reactions, removed or hidden comments. If a repository's maintainer has locked conversation on a thread, that's also a good indicator that it could be included here.
