Has Thunder ever considered potentially creating a Thunder community Discord server?

I know there's already a:

GitHub,

Lemmy community,

and

Matrix space for Thunder, which is great.

But I was wondering if you've thought about expanding to Discord as well?

Alternatively, have you looked into Revolt Chat as another option? It's a newer platform that is similar to Discord, but open-source.

I'm curious about your thoughts on these additional communication channels, and if you see any benefits or drawbacks to potentially expanding Thunder's online presence in these ways.

I've been trying to get my friends to leave Discord. Such a privacy nightmare should never be prompted under almost any circumstances.

Hey there! Thanks for bringing this up.

Right now, I’m not sure if adding another communication channel (e.g., Discord) for Thunder would be useful. We currently have three different channels for different purposes:

  • GitHub – For reporting issues, feature requests, and development-related discussions.
  • Lemmy – For general discussions, support, and announcements.
  • Matrix – For quick conversations and direct messaging.

Adding a Discord server (or something similar) would likely just increase the overhead for me, as I’d have to moderate yet another space. That being said, if there’s ever enough demand, I’d be open to creating one!
