Re: Community chat?
I agree with Yuval. If we wanted to keep chats in the open source world, there's also Matrix nowadays which works quite well.

Re: Community chat?
Both have their place IMO. There's a lot of value in synchronous communication for which I'd prefer Slack or Discord. For async communication, I think moving away from mailing lists into something like a Discourse forum would be good. On Wed, Feb 24, 2021 at 11:36 AM Marta Paes Moreira wrote: > Ah!

Re: Community chat?
Ah! That freenode channel dates back to...2014? The community is not maintaining any channels other than the Mailing List (and Stack Overflow), currently. But this is something we're looking into, as it's coming up more and more frequently. Would Slack be your first pick? Or would something async but easier to interact with also work, like a Discourse forum? Thanks for bringing this up!

Re: Community chat?
A dedicated Slack would be awesome.
