Hi, Maybe it is just me but I don't understand the concern with numbers. Both GG and discourse have email integration. Which means that following strategy should work.
Step 1 - use one of the existent scripts to migrate archive from GG to discourse - configure [email protected] to forward all email to additional email ([email protected] for example) - bingo you would have two forums with the same content Step 2 - have content curators who would tag interesting solutions - maybe tag some of the old posts as well (use search stats to figure out what deserves the effort) Step 3 - when all are happy announce deprecation of GG - update links on tiddlywiki.com - configure auto reply on [email protected] saying that people should use [email protected] (keep forwarding for 1 year) Step 4 - after one year remove forwarding but keep auto reply On 3 October 2019 04:31:17 GMT-07:00, Stephen Wilson <[email protected]> wrote: >For me it's all about the numbers...I signed up for yammer, i signed up >for >the not-self discussion solution...
