Please, setup the Support for Joplin. Joplin doesn't have support it all.
How much times I assembled bugs. No answers. On GitHub - the owner of the project simply deleted my proposals and bugs. When after Google told to patch both of these bugs - you did it. Before - it is not interesting. Set up the Support of to write that Joplin doesn't have support. Or let Joplin will be the paid program. Support should be quick, great and efficient. In topics with a lot of answers. In the really needed topicks - no one or rejected and after remarks of Google - patched. It is not seriously.
Glad you read the license agreement and that whole section about no support, guarantees, fitness for purpose, merchantability and yada yada.
You can't pay people to support stuff like Joplin the same way you can't pay people to be good workers at call centers. Good support is provided by people who are passionate, not by people who see it as just a job.
And ultimately, not everything can be solved, even with enterprise support contracts, nevermind whatevver any random user thinks they can afford for problems that take 20 hours each.

This forum is support. The subreddit is also support. Both have searching too to find issues others had prior to you.
Being open source, we are all volunteers.

These statements of "deleting proposals and bugs" are very important to me. Can you provide anything the supports these assertions? I'd like to verify.

Yes. I can sent screenshots from my Github account. Do you need thereof?
I use a lot of Open Source project apps, including Manjaro Linux. They have the great support from community. I assembled bugs, which I found and posted thereof. No one answers. Other guys posted a lot of flood. A lot of answers.
In Android version we have bug, that doesn't work highlighting of the text for cutting and copying. I should do this several times. I have this on Android 14, Android 8.1, etc. Does oo one have this problem? especially with the big parts of note? Etc. How to fix thereof?
I can post about bugs when I find them. Or I can start the commercial versions of Joplin with enterprise support.
Do that then, if you think you've more knowledge of the software than people who've developed it for 6+ years and can out do them on their own tool, GPL gives you that right.
Just like it gives us the right to tell you no support because people decided 40 years ago that was a good idea and still is. What makes you think the average person can afford developer consultancy rates and what do we charge if after 20 hours they say "it can't be done"?
Your money isn't worth the obligations.
The issue isn't you reporting bugs. The issue is you demanding they're fixed and that anything less than fixed counts as no support, on a forum that's 90% giving people support (for free, too).
