Any proprietary interface or message database is anathema to honest
communication. And even if they currently have benevolent commercial
policies there's always the possibility of another twitter-style

Moguls love communication platforms and always have, from Randall Hearst

Hi all.
It helps to be clear on what you mean. Referring to a technology or app without
being specific may ruin its reputation and what is was intended to be used for.
Discord was not intended to be an archive for information, just a way to
encourage the dissemination of information in a

I'm sorry but I have to disagree. The way that discord presents the
information vs a forum style or even Facebook style is, to me, very very
distracting and hard to communicate across. The constant chatter, distracting

Discord is a collection of channels most devoted to specific subjects that you
more or less subscribe to. It’s just a server and you need an invite to join a
group.
I have to second the motion. In my opinion in general social media is a
waste of time and energy.
I understand the time it takes to run VCF but to have multiple possible

I swear to God, Discord will be the end of the open Internet, it's where
information goes to die. I hate it with every fiber of my being. And yes, I use
it, I'm on many servers.
We've got a standby list of about 10 people so far. Did you fill in the
table reservation Google form that Jason sent to this list a couple weeks
ago?
Feel free to bring things and there's a chance you might fit in. There's
