"You can check out the full change log on our Discord!"
I'm seeing this more and more.
For the love of all holy gaming, please stop doing that. Put it on the actual open web where people can read it properly.
@gamingonlinux I really don't get the attachment people feel with Discord.
@rbanffy @gamingonlinux It's an addiction. Source: experience
@rbanffy @gamingonlinux discord members can be leveraged as potential impressions and player base for devs if they are looking for publishers
@rbanffy @gamingonlinux It's PHPBB forums, with a singular login client, and notifications for when messages are posted.
Well, that, and it's a Free hosting site essentially...and it updates more than once every 7 years.
I can sort of see the appeal, except...PHPBB forums did a bunch of things better and still does.
@rbanffy @gamingonlinux (Actually, upon double checking, since PHPBB Forums the software is still in development, it's probably more accurate to call it the Invisionfree forums hosting...only with an app client, and video/voice chat, but otherwise...still worse in general.)*
@AT1ST @rbanffy @gamingonlinux
Except that those forums allow you to put the important announcements and documents that random people will want/need to read in a subforum that doesn't require an account to access.
@chakatfirepaw @rbanffy @gamingonlinux I did say that PHPBB forums did do some stuff better than Discord - that is just one of them.
@rbanffy@mastodon.social Mostly, the community it has and because it is already have it there, it's difficult to try to encourage better alterative to them as it has to be rebuilt again.
