After reviewing https://blog.pragmaticengineer.com/stack-overflow-is-almost-dead/, the decline at StackOverflow is rapid and nearly total/fatal.
Based on this we should guide users to post questions in the users mailing list. GitHub discussions can be an alternative, since it is replicated to the users mailing list. #questions in the slack channel are archived to https://www.linen.dev/s/grails/c/questions and that appears to be crawlable.
