I think you're missing the point here. The solution to the "documentation on a chatroom" problem is not putting documentation on another chatroom.

The lack of indexable pages is a killer, what a waste of human time to be answering the same basic questions because every previous answer gets sucked into the black hole of a walled chat room with bad search.

Ah I see what you mean. The point completely went over my head. Yes, I definitely agree that documentation should be on GitHub or something so it's easily and openly indexable.
