In our current implementation, loose lists and tight lists look the same visually. Loose lists are lists with blank lines between list items, and the contents of a list item should be enclosed in a paragraph tag in that case. For unordered lists, paragraph tags have a bottom margin in starlight and thus looses lists look much more spaced out than tight lists. That is not the behaviour we had in mind while writing the documentation, the reason we had all these loose lists is to make the documentation easy to write and read. So we attempt to remove all the blank lines and fix the problem at source. Since paragraph tags are used for other purposes in a list in starlight, it won't be a wise decision to let the source be as is and just change things in css, other expected behaviours might break in that case. See this topic for more details: https://chat.zulip.org/#narrow/channel/19-documentation/topic/new.20help.20center.3A.20regressions/near/2226084 All the changes were made by a one-off script which has not been commited to the repo. The script wasn't perfect and could not decide between blank lines that make a list loose vs blank lines necessary for a sub-list or a code block inside a list item. A manual review of all the changes was done before making this commit to ensure that no unintended changes were made to the help center files.

# Support the Zulip project
|
||
|
||
{!supporting-zulip-motivation.md!}
|
||
|
||
The Zulip community (which includes you!) is a huge part of what makes Zulip
|
||
successful. If you appreciate Zulip, there are many different ways you can
|
||
support the project. Some of these will only take a few minutes of your
|
||
time, but still make a big difference.
|
||
|
||
* [Support Zulip financially](#support-zulip-financially): Sponsoring Zulip
|
||
helps fund free [Zulip Cloud Standard](https://zulip.com/plans/) hosting for
|
||
hundreds of open source projects, research communities, and other worthy
|
||
organizations.
|
||
* [Help others find Zulip](#help-others-find-zulip): As a business that's
|
||
[growing sustainably](https://zulip.com/values/) without venture capital
|
||
funding, Zulip cannot afford splashy ad campaigns to compete with giant
|
||
corporations like Salesforce (Slack) and Microsoft (Teams). Zulip depends
|
||
on users and other members of the community to spread the word about the
|
||
difference that using Zulip's organized team chat has made for you or your
|
||
organization.
|
||
* [Help improve Zulip](#help-improve-zulip): Zulip is developed by a [vibrant
|
||
open-source community](https://zulip.com/team/), and there are many ways to
|
||
contribute even without writing a single line of code.
|
||
|
||
## Support Zulip financially
|
||
|
||
You can sponsor Zulip through the [GitHub sponsors
|
||
program](https://github.com/sponsors/zulip) (preferred), on
|
||
[Patreon](https://patreon.com/zulip), or on [Open
|
||
Collective](https://opencollective.com/zulip).
|
||
|
||

|
||
* [**Link to Zulip**](/help/linking-to-zulip-website) from your organization's
|
||
website. In addition to providing information for anyone browsing your

||
website, this helps people find Zulip in Google and other search engines.
|
||
* [**List your organization**](/help/communities-directory) in the [Zulip
|
||
communities directory](https://zulip.com/communities/). Browsing open
|
||
communities helps folks see how others are using Zulip, and learn best
|
||
practices.
|
||
* **Star** Zulip on GitHub. There are four main repositories:
|
||
[server/web](https://github.com/zulip/zulip),
|

|
||
[G2](https://www.g2.com/products/zulip/reviews/start) and [Software
|
||
Advice](https://reviews.softwareadvice.com/new/316022). Organizations rely on
|
||
review sites more and more when choosing software for their team, and sharing
|
||
your experience with Zulip (good or bad) helps them evaluate whether Zulip
|
||
might work for their needs.
