Is complaining to open source project maintainers getting normalized ? (lemmy.ml)

And how can this be improved ? Should "normies" be pushed into RTFM or ELI5 ?

That could get rather annoying. Imagine if when you installed your distro everything was compiled from source (I apologise if you use Gentoo or LFS), it would take a lot longer.

Also people could still just upload a binary to various package managers (assuming the source is available).
