Bug reports on any software

When a bug tracker is inside the exclusive walled-gardens of MS Github or Gitlab.com, and you cannot or will not enter, where do you file your bug report? Here, of course. This is a refuge where you can report bugs that are otherwise unreportable due to technical or ethical constraints.

⚠of course there are no guarantees it will be seen by anyone relevant. Hopefully some kind souls will volunteer to proxy the reports.

I needed to DM a security bug to @[email protected], but the Lemmy UI gives no way to freely compose a DM and manually enter an address. Users are expected to find a hyperlinked user click on it, and then click “send message”. The search functionality failed to find anything when I queried @[email protected].

But the capability is there for advanced users who discover that they can click on the user of an external account and then mimic the URL format to manually enter an account.
