Description
## Description
The Discord link in README (`https://docling.ai/discord`) goes through a blank landing page before redirecting to the actual Discord invite. This creates a confusing experience for new users trying to join the community.
### Current flow:
1. Click Discord badge → redirected to `www.docling.ai/discord`
2. Blank page loads briefly
3. Then redirects again to the actual Discord invite
### Suggested improvement:
Replace with a direct `discord.gg/xxxxx` invite link so users can join in one click.
**Benefits:**
- Simpler onboarding for new users
- Better mobile experience (opens Discord app directly)
Could you share the direct Discord invite link? Happy to help with a PR if needed.
Thanks!
