From 281f9018b145752f4a344da03cf6a0c13fe6df6e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alyssa Ross Date: Fri, 19 Jan 2024 00:22:50 +0100 Subject: Documentation: improve prose of communication page There was a lot of fluff here that got in the way of actually finding the information people are coming to this page to find. "You are strongly encouraged to mirror them." is probably confusing to people who don't know what mirroring this, so rephrase this to make it clearer that this isn't something people need to worry about in that case.
