The whole point is that they don't have to answer. They hope someone else from the community will before they get to it.

It is the evolution of the mailing list then forum style "support". Make a forum, let people ask question and answer them themselves. Ideally don't participate in the communication at all yourself. Win!

Here we all are pretending like there aren’t groups that expect people to look for support on an IRC channel.

This isn’t some new degradation today’s youth have inflicted upon us. Discord is just the new IRC.
