Community
The main place where the community gathers is our Discord server. Feel free to join there to ask questions, help out others, share cool things you created with Typst, or just to chat. - hand on gear shift zoomed in, switching to reverse

Weâre complaining about having to use it incorrectly. We canât help if the software project (thatâs part of a software project, thatâs part of a software project we need) only offers support via discord.
To belabor your metaphor, youâre saying that we shouldnât complain if we want a steak and the only place to get steak only offers plungers as utensils.
You donât have to. Fork it, make it better. Crush the existing developers, see them driven before you and hear the lamentations of their Patreon donators.
Sure. If you need software support, build a support system and get everyone else to use it. Makes perfect sense. I hope you live exclusively by this principal.
What? This is about documentation and maintenance of an open source project, this isnât a SaaS situation.
If your documentation sucks, youâre no better than the discord hell the original project came from.
And yes, I only work with open source projects that are run well, or I fork them and maintain them for personal use.
