Why do you expect better docs from free projects? You could certainly try to be the change you want to see, but you'll find it is not easy to create comprehensive documentation for these projects, and then dedicate yourself to keeping them up to date.
That's fair actually. I should appreciate that these people are all doing this on their spare time. I had considered updating a GH repo with what I learned about the Switch Android install process but was quite exhausted after spending the full day finding and implementing the up to date YouTube guide.
I'm sure that's the case for many people. There's also a much broader audience of people who want to do these jailbreaks than programmers who are used to reading documentation. I imagine videos are drastically more accessible for them.
The worst is when you do write up docs, there are links to the docs, but then people ask questions answered in the docs, and then fail to even really attempt to read the docs after you tell them it's in the docs.
Often people want a quick fix designed specifically for them, and do not want to read even a few pages of docs.
Yeah there's definitely a lot of entitlement from people in open source/volunteer projects. I will just say that as programmers we're far better equipped to handle the frustration of errors and have the patience to solve problems on our own. These things do often get out of hand though as I've seen in many GitHub issues.
