Re: Migration planning

 

Hey Tristan!

Hehe. Thanks! Also very happy to see us growing! And yes, 7 years… I'm sure
10 years is going to be only a glimpse or two away.

I think the times people used IRC are almost over; If they do, they
probably using it bridged via Matrix, like we do. That's why you may not
know we have it in place. :-)

Teams is definitely no option for me. I'm so much in the Google Workspace
Ecosystem, Google Chat is no valid option for large number of group chats,
so Slack is the only real option.

Cool, I'll continue thinking about it - I definitely want it to be as
inclusive as possible.

What about Discord? Seems like a good alternative for communities.

Cheers,
 Oliver
