Good. hardwareswap is moving to Discord for now too. Which is slightly better
Hate discord with a passion. I don’t know why all the “new-age” open-source projects are also moving to Discord as their primary forum. The search is abysmal, there’s no way to go back to previous postings in a sane manner.
I reluctantly use discord because some of my favorite application developers use that (Immich, Omnivore, Logseq) but it’s just a massive pain in the ass and every time I spend even 10 minutes there, it feels like I’ve spent hours looking into the dark mayhem, searching for a needle in the haystack.

It feels like digging through someone else’s IRC chatlogs in search of an answer.
I like that they’re moving to something self-hosted. I don’t like that it’s a non-threaded forum again. I liked Reddit and do like kbin / Lemmy because the structure of the threads is preserved much better, like it was with Usenet or mailing lists before. I think a better approach would have been to host such an instance on their own.
What do you mean? They use a MyBB which is a plain old thread-style forum.
