Governance of community groups can be complex. Some "volunteers" have burdensome reasons for being involved, so it is important that the group have agreed on boundaries & dispute handling.
Long running organizations have "evolved" governance mechanisms. Before my retirement (now aged & frail), my Toastmasters International (10 years) and 12-step groups have solid governance structures.
When pioneering new groups or organizations, young, educated persons can be OK. But older, disturbed & unsettled persons are much more closed off & can be destructive.
In our computer worlds, it is interesting to witness various talented coder types who lack interpersonal skills. Some are like myself, having had traumatic brain injury for the last 35 years. So we need "people-orientated interfaces" between us and the non-coding worlds. GUI, rather than CLI.
Bling-bling (GNOME, Cinnamon) rather Windows-managers.
