Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮A really annoying thing that absolutely needs to stop:
- "More info in the discord!" / "Changelog in the Discord!"
STOP THAT.
Discord is a closed, proprietary platform. Post your stuff on the actual open web where more people will see it.
Hyperlink Your Heart@gamingonlinux I don't understand the impulse to use Discord for everything. Use it for chat! Use more appropriate tools for your releases, changelogs, outreach etc. Even using it for support chat is not ideal because any solutions arrived at will just be lost in time, though I understand why the immediacy is appealing.
PypeBros@hyperlinkyourheart @gamingonlinux I see it as a way to engage people and have them ready-to-interact early.
Seong's 🎄 Seongs@PypeBros @hyperlinkyourheart @gamingonlinux Can confirm, most people are using it for free/faster tech support.
Even when you tell people to post issues on a perfectly open and available GH issues board, many *still* insist on throwing out issues and feature requests in a chat... That I don't look at and will inevitably get lost as the next couple of people start clogging the help channel.
Unless you ACTIVELY engage with people on Discord, it just turns into a chaotic support outlet.
