Hello there. I'm going to set up a chat so we can discuss questionable automotive ideas and such. I was thinking Discord might be the best, but I wanted to post the question to see if anyone had any comments or other ideas. let me know your thoughts.

i feel like discord is a good idea, though i can’t compare with many alternatives as i don’t use many others.

Discord is a great platform to use in my opinion. Let me know if you have any questions about getting started. I run a couple larger Discord servers so I can answer any questions about setting stuff up!

I’ve never been a fan of discord for a repository of information. I don’t like the chat room-esque style of it. I like being able to search and find information and Discord doesn’t do that as well as other options. If all you want is a chat room then go for it. I’d suggest Reddit for a depository. It’s searchable, it allows conversation, it’s free, it can be made private. Can be moderated.

would absolutely agree that discord is not a good repository for information, and can definitely say it’s search function is not very good. though as a place to chat it is quite nice.

It’d be fun to chat. I’m no fan of discord, but it’s probably the most popular, free solution that doesn’t require a neck-beard-y user base. I suspect we’re all more grease-monkey…y.

I'd love a discord channel! I'm always on there anyways ^^

Travis

I'm offended by both your terms of "neck-beard" and "Grease-monkey". I mean. Seriously. My full, lush, neckbeard lends credit to the greasyness of my Monkeyness. It's like you don't even know who I am!?! Unrelated, I welcome you to the Kingdom of Monkey-NeckBeards. Let's Do this!!!

Discord is the go-to for this kind of thing, but my geekiness lends more to the Slack side of things ;)

I also vote yes for the discord. Would it be open to the public or for patreon?

Superfast Matt

Good question. I figured I would open it to patrons first. Do you think it would be better if it were public?

Jose

I would lean to making it open to everyone. Perhaps on the discord you can make a channel restricted to Patreon supporters only, but there will be more engagement and cool ideas thrown around if it’s made available to more people.

Jose

I’ll take an nft. Maybe someone can also make a $MATT coin

Discord is a great idea!

Jake Spurlock

Discord is cool, but what about Slack.........

I think a public discord with patreon only parts sounds like a good idea. I help manage another discord for a youtuber I support on patreon and that’s how we did it over there.

Free tier of Slack doesn't keep very much history, if that's a consideration.
