This is true for Nim as well, in that most of the discussion is on the Discord/Matrix server. I’m not a fan personally, at least IRC was easily archived and searchable in practice.

I really dislike how Discord has become “forums in the 2020s”




This is not actually true for Nim - almost all Nim Discord channels are bridged to different IRC channels, see https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/wiki#bridged-real-time-chats


Oh that's nice, I thought the IRC bridge had been left to languish. Good to know I was wrong!
