I'm basically the opposite of you.

There is a pile of merge requests I need to review when I get time. And the reason I want to review X, Y, and Z is because I personally desire to see improvements X, Y, and Z to the niche FOSS software I maintain.

Funny thing is, we are on a forum named "Hacker News" and I'd speculate that I'm the outlier and yours is the common case.



There's a difference between working on your own stuff vs. working purely to trade time for money as an employee. Sometimes you can have both I guess , but I think it's the exception, not the norm.
