Yeap that's definetly a plus however it won't be free if you decide to use rocket server which gives Discord the edge here. On Fri, 9 Sep 2016 at 00:23, Brad Selfridge wrote: > Plus, you can setup your own chat server > > > > - > Brad Selfridge > -- > View this

Hold your horses we still testing it out. No need to rush things. Stick with Slack, that's fine. I don't know about linking Slack and Discord. Personally I don't see the point, when we created Slack , the IRC channel died out. The same will happen to slack if discord proves as good as we assume

Is there a way to link Slack with Discord? I remember people asking for a IRC gateway when I setup the Slack channel, don't know whether they still use IRC or the gateway at all. I could change easily, I don't like the fact that I'll have to install another app in my phone... but whatever... no

The main reason why Unreal has abandoned Slack is the reason I made the Discord server and that is 10.000 messages limit. Not only Slack asks payment for more but it also deletes anything that passes that limit. For me and Esteban and I suspect many people that's unacceptable when there a ton of

Hi Kilon, Why move there? Just because Unreal is using it and dropped Slack doesn't mean it doesn't work for a small community like ours. I would avoid adding noise here and stick with what already works. It took us some time to reach ~250 members in https://pharoproject.slack.com/.

Thanks all of the people who joined us we are already 14 members including 2 administrators me and Esteban. Discord has passed this daily test, it supports markup which means you can paste Pharo code with Smalltalk syntax highlighting, it previews links, edit messages, has YouTube and Twitch

I have been aware about Discord for some time now , but I never used it because both Pharo and Unreal channels are on Slack. From my small experience with it, it seemed much more superior to Slack with added bonus that is completely free (open source ) and with no restrictions unlike Slack. But
