I mean, that is still part of the Linux community. Thanks for the offer but by now I think I solved most of my annoyances (though it took a long time and was quite painful…)
That’s reassuring. I have avoided Discord mostly, because it’s obviously a poor format for sharing information, but I had to dive in recently for help with a niche hobby. Every other source just directed people to the Discord.
Every time I thought I found an answer, it was in a thread of people disagreeing over every bit of advice, interwoven with parallel disagreements over unrelated advice.
What’s the appeal? Does Discord just create the illusion of usefulness by overwhelmingly users with low quality… ah yes, the ChatGPT comparison is fitting.
TBF, they’re not talking about the official fedora devs or what they’re doing but the community in general. I would assume the Fedora discord is the largest discord dedicated to Fedora and whether we like it or not it’s a representation of the linux community.
In what way was I being hostile? I reread my comment and I really can’t figure it out. The first paragraph reads as very dismissive of OPs complaint, it just seemed to me like you missed the point OP was making.
I appreciate the helpfulness in pointing OP to better resources though!
