Contributing & Feedback

Suggest corrections, propose changes, or reach the maintainers — via GitHub PR, Discord, subreddit modmail, or email.

This site is open source and community-maintained. If you have something to add, correct, or push back on, here’s how.

Suggest a correction or addition (via GitHub)

The site source lives on GitHub at github.com/quitting7oh/quitting7oh.org. Every page has a “View source on GitHub” link at the bottom that takes you directly to the markdown file. From the GitHub view, hit the pencil icon in the top-right of the file to propose an edit as a pull request, GitHub walks you through the steps if you’ve never done it.

Things that are especially welcome as PRs:

  • Factual corrections: with a source if it’s not common knowledge.
  • New information about a compound, protocol, or recovery experience that isn’t covered yet.
  • Better explanations of things that read as confusing or out-of-date.
  • Broken links, typos, formatting issues: small but real.
  • Pushback on AI-generated phrasing that reads off, doesn’t match the site’s tone, or oversimplifies a nuance that matters.

You don’t need to be a developer to open a PR. GitHub’s edit-in-browser flow handles the git mechanics; you just edit the markdown.

Reach the team directly

If a PR isn’t the right shape, several other ways to get feedback to us:

Any of these works for general feedback, content concerns, or “this page made me angry, here’s why”, all of which are useful and welcome.

If you find something harmful or objectionable

This is the case where we most want to hear from you. AI-assisted content can produce subtle errors, miss context, or use phrasing that lands worse than intended. If something on the site reads as harmful, minimizing a real danger, recommending something risky without warning, using language that punches down on someone going through this, please flag it. Either:

  1. Open a PR with a proposed fix, or
  2. Reach us in any of the channels above with what you saw and why it’s a problem.

We don’t promise to agree with every concern, but every flagged-as-harmful issue gets read and considered. The bar for “fix it now” is whether it could plausibly hurt a real reader; the bar for “let’s talk about it” is much lower.

What we can’t do

A few honest limits:

  • No individual medical advice. Even via DM. We’re not a clinical resource and shouldn’t be one, see your prescriber, or the Telehealth Providers comparison if you don’t yet have one.
  • No vendor recommendations or endorsements. We don’t compare brands, recommend specific products, or vouch for online pharmacies. The site mentions a couple of telehealth providers because community members have used them, not as endorsements.
  • No guarantee of privacy on public channels. Modmail and Discord DMs to a specific moderator are private; public posts and channels are not. If something is sensitive, choose accordingly.
  • No fast response times. Mods are volunteers with their own lives and recoveries. Expect hours-to-days, not minutes. The live #sos channel on Discord is monitored more frequently than the rest, but it is still volunteer-based, not a crisis line, not a substitute for 988 / 911 / SAMHSA, and not a guaranteed-response service. If you are in an emergency, call the appropriate hotline first; post in #sos after.

Credit and acknowledgement

If you’ve contributed content, code, or substantial review effort, we’ll credit you on the Community page, or omit you if you’d rather stay uncredited. Pseudonyms are completely fine; most of us go by handles in this space anyway.
