Since Slack chat is by nature supposed to be more real-time I imagine it makes sense if you have a larger community being "always online" and interaction. For freemarker I think a more asynchronous medium is better since it is currently more low-traffice. I could be wrong but I imagine it a bit more silent chat, and not sure the useful content would be available for the public. The advantage of a forum like Discourse is the asynchronous nature and the easier accessibility (public forum = indexed in google). I know the archive https://lists.apache.org/list.html?dev@freemarker.apache.org is also index in google...., but....wait a minute.... speaking of the archive I just realized that it is possible to register online in the archive and even reply from online directly on the website - what I am doing right now :) So maybe this serves a similar purpose as I had in mind with discourse forum. Discourse is a bit more feature rich with quoting, tagging, etc. but that's not too important. I think I will try it out that way and I am fine :) Forget my initial suggestion. Have a nice evening.
Yes, as we use to say in Apache: "if it's not in the ML it does not exist at all". That's what I believe too ;) Have a good weekend Jacques
