Question:
What are the eligible projects? I vaguely remember that last year we need to look for projects with hacktoberfest hash tag somewhere.
I don't see that part mentioned anywhere this year. Is it still required?
I want to confirm it first because I remember last year some of my PRs were not recognized, even after several days.
This year too, for making a valid PR that count towards Hactoberfest 2021, you must have to look for the 'hacktoberfest' topic in any projects. Also you can check more rules here hacktoberfest.digitalocean.com/
It will make you clear!
