Notes
- Please be patient: this is a large open source project that is overseen by a mixture of volunteers and non-volunteers which are all ultimately busy.
- If your suggestion is a troubleshooting scenario or one you're not 100% certain about, please post for feedback on the Nextcloud Help Forum first.
- Then return here to bring back your experience to help improve the documentation for clarity, etc. (and link back to the forum discussion in your report!)
Protip: If you want to help move things along (or just help out in other ways too) here are some suggestions:
- Look for areas where you can assist - even seemingly unrelated areas - because doing so frees up resources for your favorite topics and ideas.
- Submit a proposed change - that attempts to addresses your issue - as a pull request.
- Participate in a discussion on some other unresolved submitted idea ("issues") to help move it along.
- Post a comment or review on someone else's proposed change ("pull request") to help move it along.
