Re: [elm-discuss] New guidelines for posting on Elm-discuss

Noah, a general code of conduct is a great idea, even if nothing other than to point at if a sensitive topic begins to get heated. Great job bud. I tend to have the same opinion of Slack (we use it in house). Slack is an indispensable collaboration tool, but it makes a less than perfect message

Just found out about https://elmlang.slackarchive.io so this is potentially a non-issue. On Sunday, May 7, 2017 at 1:06:14 AM UTC-4, Dave Rapin wrote: > > The problem with slack is that discussions are lost after you hit their > limit (which wasn't terribly high last time I checked). So instead

Re: [elm-discuss] New guidelines for posting on Elm-discuss

The problem with slack is that discussions are lost after you hit their limit (which wasn't terribly high last time I checked). So instead of finding / googling for an answer / question that had previously been covered, you must ask again, which is of course async and therefor more time

Re: [elm-discuss] New guidelines for posting on Elm-discuss

For contrast, consider the Elm community on Slack. Friendly and welcoming, all kinds of questions get answered. Here, flamewars and personal attacks happen far too often, and it's really giving Elm a bad name, despite being a minority of people. On Sat, May 6, 2017 at 3:37 AM, John Orford

I remember reading that post from Overmind and thinking it v odd. Maybe I am blind or have rose coloured glasses. Unsure whether Noah's rule book will help or hinder. But good that he cares. On Sat 6. May 2017 at 09:01, Mark Marlow wrote: > John, > > I tend to agree that

Re: [elm-discuss] New guidelines for posting on Elm-discuss

John, I tend to agree that the discourse isn't a problem. However, one can't help but notice that there is a perception of hostility in this community, e.g. https://elixirforum.com/t/front-end-development-options-2017/3832/2 The standard you walk past is the standard you accept, and we all

Re: [elm-discuss] New guidelines for posting on Elm-discuss

Hi Dustin, Regarding where to post, my personal recommendation is to choose Slack first. It has the largest community and problems get answered very quickly. People will also direct you to the right place if you're not sure. Regarding guidelines, we have discussed this quite a bit, and this post

Re: [elm-discuss] New guidelines for posting on Elm-discuss

I love your work Noah and appreciate the sentiment. But... I think elm-discuss is quite nice. I haven't seen anything egregious, and rather free form discussion rather than pointing people to the rule book every once in a while. >From my POV almost everyone comes with the right attitude here.

Re: [elm-discuss] New guidelines for posting on Elm-discuss

LGTM — One thing that trips me up is deciding where to post what. Slack/Reddit/elm-discuss/elm-dev are all super helpful (and Twitter sometimes), but I hit decision fatigue trying to decide which medium to reach for on a case-by-case basis—I suspect I'm not the only one. The community page
