You don’t have to. Fork it, make it better. Crush the existing developers, see them driven before you and hear the lamentations of their Patreon donators.
It’s open source software. Forking and improving is a core feature.
If people have a decent idea but a shit implementation, supercede them.

What? This is about documentation and maintenance of an open source project, this isn’t a SaaS situation.
If your documentation sucks, you’re 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.

The one discord thing I do is mention I am making the fork, then spend the first while doing the documentation I wish existed. I set up the repo to accept issues and allow discussion.
Conan the Developer has spoken!
Does that really happen? I only used discord for limited socialization, discussing e.g. math in specific channels.
