MODERATORS
So a lot of people have pointed out the obvious factors like experience, time, and money. But I think a another big one is the culture. A lot of FOSS has been impenetrable ime with how many keyboard warriors exist in discord and forum communities. Doesn't exactly make the newbie experience the best
Greybeards can be found in lots of places, but definitely not on discord.
