- Mezzie 4y agoI hate this, and I like Discord. Discord is a replacement for IRC/chat/AIM/other synchronous and informal conversation. It's not a replacement for forums, archives, or formal communication.
- Grimburger 4y agoDealing with opensource projects via discord is a nightmare. One I use regularly decided to escape the walled garden and move to github discussions and it's been such a boon for search. Discord is a repetitive nightmare of doing support I don't know why projects use it. The discord server still exists but questions generally don't get answered as much or if they do it's usually a link to github discussions.
- prox 4y agoSo how do you combine social network + forum? What does that look like?
