a bit frustrated that kapa.ai seems to replace all interaction here and makes it look like issues are being resolved.

Hello @Stefán Baxter thanks for the feedback. Airbyte’s team is working to improve the community interactions. One example is the change from Discourse to Github Discussion. For Slack any feedback about Kapa or ideas about improvements you can send to us we’re going to be more than happy to this them!

I had a great session with the "Office Hours" team. Great support! Thank you.
