Email Support

For private matters or issues that shouldn’t be discussed publicly, you can reach out via email:

Email Support

Send an email to [email protected]
Email is best for:
  • Account-specific issues
  • Privacy concerns
  • Security vulnerabilities (also see SECURITY.md)
  • Matters requiring confidentiality

When to Use Each Channel

Use GitHub Issues. Create a detailed bug report with steps to reproduce, expected behavior, and actual behavior. Include your browser, OS, and any error messages.
Start with GitHub Discussions. Discuss your idea with the community first to gather feedback. If it gains traction, you can create a formal feature request as a GitHub Issue.
Use Discord or GitHub Discussions. Both are great for questions. Discord is faster for quick questions, while Discussions are better for detailed explanations that others can reference later.
Use Discord #development channel or GitHub Discussions. Discuss your planned contribution first to ensure it aligns with the project goals. Then refer to the Contributing Guide.
Use Email. Send a message to [email protected] for any account-specific or privacy-related concerns.
Follow the Security Policy. Report security issues according to the guidelines in SECURITY.md. Do not post security vulnerabilities publicly.

Community Guidelines

Before seeking support:
  • Check the FAQ for common questions
  • Search existing issues and discussions to avoid duplicates
  • Be respectful and follow the Code of Conduct
