to ensure the author of the issue can provide more details about their problem and respond to follow up immediately.

if you actually visit that Discord (like I reluctantly do, from time to time), you'll find that all issues are being discussed in a handful of general channels with multiple people discussing multiple issues at the same time in one never-eding stream of messages. if you miraculously find a proper keyword that brings up someone else having the same issue as you do, the only way to find if someone else replied to it is by scrolling through all that noise.

Discord has like a Q/A section now doesn't it? That should definitely be utilized more than the chat portion for projects like this.

You mentioned "keyword", are you aware of the search feature in discord?

yes, I'm aware of how absolutely useless it is.
