I’m registered with both. I don’t much use either. My impression is that our 
mailing list carries more traffic than Stack Overflow, but Zulip seems to carry 
much more traffic than either. 

I don’t know why we should try to build our own discussion server. Unless we 
can do it better, we shall struggle to lure people away from the existing 
options. Even if we could, is this really our priority? We don’t need to 
reinvent every wheel.

Take a look at https://isabelle.zulipchat.com/ where people have created 
streams covering a variety of topics and where discussions seem to be going on 
more or less constantly. It’s actually heartening to see these communities 
developing spontaneously, with no encouragement on our part.
