That link worked. Thanks. I was on Mac but didn’t have the native app installed 
so Safari just barfed on that link.

 

Confusingly there’s a “clojurians” Discord server and a “Clojurians” server 
too. The former seems to be an old testbed set up last year to try Discord out 
as an alternative.

I've added the Discord invite link in this document


I gather that requires an app installed, not just a web browser? I clicked the 
link, clicked to accept the invite, and got an error about a discord:// link 
not being supported.

(this is the sort of discoverability / affordance issue that people complain 
about)

 

There are web, desktop, and mobile versions of Discord. 

 

That's a curious workflow, one I hadn't seen before because I didn't need to 
invite myself to the Discord I made :) On a Mac, here's what happened when I 
tried after clicking the link:

 

- I was bounced to a "you've been invited to join" page (with a scary look Orc 
as the background) 

- I accepted the invite

- Safari popped a "do you want to open the Discord app?" dialog

- I hit cancel

- The Discord page was still there offering me a "Continue to Discord" button 
that opened the web app

 

Not sure what platform you're on, but their attempt to pop a discord:// link is 
surely not going to work in all cases :/ 

 

If it helps, the final resting place of my browser's URL when I made it into 
the web chat is below. It's quite a fearsome URL, I'm not sure if that's a 
session ID or a globally unique link for our server.
