Making draft PRs, even if they don't work yet, might be a good way of demonstrating that you're working on something. Or do you get too much useless feedback when you do?
I never considered doing that, actually. I always felt like PRs where only useful when you actually had something to show, otherwise you are just spamming a project with useless ideas and "what if"s.
But this is also my first time contributing to an open source project. Learning experience.
It unfortunately depends much upon the community/person administrating the repository. If I'm worried about that, I tend to just make a post in /Discussion linking to my private fork.
