Today is a good day to thank someone who develops or maintains open source. Especially someone working on something that's not well known. Speaking from experience, getting a spontaneous, honest "thank you" can be the highlight of a week. Being specific also helps.
Every day is a good day for that.
(Spontaneous ⇒ this is not me begging for positive feedback. Please find someone who needs it more than I do.)
