using github should've been a warning sign

I run multiple containers from a single dev, and I could switch to someone else’s images, but it’s a hassle. Once I ran into an issue, I realized the sole support is provided on Discord. Which, whatever, I think it’s awful because it’s not openly searchable on the internet, but it’s his choice. However, what I found extremely dumb is ALL announcements, changelogs, including breaking changes, are posted exclusively on his Discord server. Nowhere else. And he acts all pissy about people stumbling into the server for help and not finding the exact announcement, and being trigger happy with the bans. I get people being dumb and not reading basic instructions, but this goes beyond that. Your whole fucking operation is on a closed Discord server with subpar search function.
How much do you donate to his project?
Developing a FOSS project does not absolve you of any and all responsibility to not be shitty. In order for the system to work, everyone involved (developers and users alike) should be stewards of the commons.
What if someone is simply bad at dealing with people or have very limited time and can’t provide adequate support. Should they stop developing?
The documentation is already posted on the discord.
Just post it on github, where the code resides already.
Github is owned by Microsoft. You should move all your repos to gitlab.
That’s not the point I am making.
Github at this point isn’t a good choice. The issue OP is having is that the documentation (changelogs, updates, etc) are solely on discord.
The documentation is done, and the maintainer only needs to take 5 mins and post it on the git repo as well.
