The open source approach starts with someone opening an Issue, flagging a problem or suggestion via an issue tracker (ie on Github, Gitlab, Codeberg, etc).
It may be "social.coop has a disinfo problem" (a bug) or "social.coop should tackle disinfo" or "request for social.coop Code of Conduct to cover disinfo" (a feature request).
The issue stays open for as long as it is unresolved & is only closed by either a) the person who raised the issue or b) the 'maintainers' in charge of the tracker…
