Is there a place where you can request code reviews on opensource software? (programming.dev)

Many of us write opensource code in a void: nobody ever looks at it, uses it nor reviews it. We are the only users and authors.

In order to improve, where can we get our code reviewed? I don't mean professionally, just from like-minded individuals.

Could there be a way to award the points proportionally, based on how useful the feedback is?

But who decides that? If the person who requested it can do this, you only need a friend to abuse the system and give each other a few extra points.

Maybe a open point history could help with this and users moderate themselves with this.
