As opposed to IRC? Slack?
Discord has excellent moderation tools, is economical and relatively user friendly (compared to IRC). If you desire a public space for your community to engage with you in real time, I'm not aware of a better alternative.
- navanchauhan 4y agoWhat about good ol' forums? Indexable by search engines and proper moderation tools that have stood the test of time.
- xyzzy_plugh 4y agoLike a GitHub issue tracker? The concept of forums is not lost on me, but I think the point of a chat service solves different problems.
- selfhoster11 4y agoDiscord is not a public space. It's not indexed by search engines.
- sph 4y agoNo, you're supposed to use the abysmal Discord search feature to find your question among a billion chat messages, or post it in one of the 150 channels we have for each topic under the sun. No sorry, wrong channel. Oops, your message got lost somewhere in the thousands of messages we receive per day. Discord support is hell on Earth.
- lawgimenez 4y agoWhat’s wrong with using email or Intercom?
- selfhoster11 4y agoNothing. It would be preferable to Discord, in fact.
