Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮Stop. Putting. Important. Info. In. Discord.
Put it on the actual web, where it is searchable.
Judeau (EatTheRich)@gamingonlinux I'll add Facebook groups to that as well.
I was essentially forced to make a fake Facebook account just to join a huge group that is only on Facebook and has a ton of knowledge and experience.
It's walled off to the rest of the internet and I didn't even know the group existed until recently.
Old school forums are the way.
Lyokolux@Judeau @gamingonlinux It is especially true when it comes to France. There are French content that exists only in Facebook groups 😑
Also some small french companies only have a Facebook page and call it a day

@Judeau @gamingonlinux They are not motivated to switch to an independent website, because it means maintaining the content twice.
As FB is closed, no tool can be developed to automate the publication on both website and FB.
A majority of French people are on Facebook, but the youngest generation is not. It causes a fragmentation between the two and The available content

@lyokolux @gamingonlinux A great example of why these walled gardens are bad for everyone.
Knowledge used to be available on forums and the internet as a whole. Now, like you say, it's being fractured between Facebook, Discord etc.
Not only is it not searchable on the regular internet but critical tools like the Wayback machine are rendered useless.
It's aggravating and damaging to a healthy, free, open internet.
