Looks good but I haven't chance to test it yet. But what I'm looking for is an alternative place to publish events.

No, the one spoken with family and friends – it's still limiting. Profanities in English aren't diverse either.

No way, English is too dry and limiting due to the lack of emotional tones that are present at least in Spanish and Russian (because of the flexibility of words and their order in a sentence). I'm ok with using it for technical purpose

Discord also has amazing performance. I guess it's because gamers would be mad for something like Slack eating up all the computer's resources.
