Bro, I do file bug reports and even fix things from time to time, Wayland is so broken for me I can’t work. Also, when bug reports are met with “it’s nvidia’s fault” and hostility towards the submitter, that further turns me off from participating.

Sure, but that’s not the only problem with discord as a documentation. I’d argue, from a practical standpoint that that’s not even really a big problem. The problem is that a stream of random conversation, sprinkled with memes and jokes, with multiple parties having a chat is the absolute possible worst way to find information (and it’s not even guaranteed to be there if someone hasn’t asked; or maybe someone asked, but never got answered)

That’s only microsopically better than just discord. A (shitty, but somehow popular) chat service is not documentation, even if it’s indexed.
